ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that Bears QB Tyson Bagent will “most likely” start in Week 5 against the Packers. 2026-10-09 22:00:02 Caleb Williams (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity today, and the Bears ended up listing him as questionable to play. Consider him highly questionable. Rushing their star quarterback back onto the field when Bagent and Case Keenum have both played well is unnecessary. Regardless, keep an eye on this situation. |

Bears head coach Ben Johnson said Tyson Bagent will start in Week 5 against the Packers. 2026-10-05 13:00:02 We assumed this was where things were heading after Bagent turned in a solid outing in his first start against the Jets. Bagent has been the QB2 on the Bears’ depth chart throughout the season and only missed Week 3’s start against the Eagles because he spent most of the week in the league’s concussion protocol. Bagent threw for 268 yards and one interception in Sunday’s win over the Jets and will have some appeal in 2QB/Superflex leagues, especially with the Chiefs and Panthers both on byes in Week 5. |

Tyson Bagent completed 25-of-34 attempts for 268 yards and one interception in the Bears’ Week 4 win against the Jets, adding four rushes for one yard. 2026-10-04 17:00:02 Getting the start after Case Keenum led the Bears to victory in Week 3 against the Eagles, Bagent successfully managed the run-heavy Bears offense. He was inaccurate for stretches of the game, throwing at least two balls that should have been intercepted by the New York secondary. On the day he was 8 percent over his expected completion rate. Bagent targeted Rom Odunze a team-high nine times. He connected with Colston Loveland and Luther Burden III a handful of times on well-times throws to the middle of the field. Bagent will get another start in Week 5 against the Packers with Caleb Williams sidelined. He’ll have some superflex appeal in that matchup. |

Bears QB Tyson Bagent will start in Week 4 against the Jets, reports Dan Wiederer of the Athletic. 2026-10-03 12:00:02 Bagent came in after Caleb Williams suffered a hamstring strain in Week 2, but missed Week 3 as he was in concussion protocol with Case Keenum getting the start. With Williams still out, Bagent will be back under center against the Jets. With Ben Johnson calling plays, Bagent is a super-flex option in Week 4. |

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that QB Tyson Bagent is expected to start for the Bears in Week 4 against the Jets. 2026-10-02 20:00:02 Bagent signed a two-year, $10 million contract extension in August 2025 to serve as the Bears’ No. 2 quarterback. He took the majority of first-team reps this week despite QB3 Case Keenum’s Week 3 heroics. Bagent can be started in Superflex leagues against the Jets, assuming he is officially named the starter this weekend. |
