Chicago Bears Trade Deadline Rumors on Khalil Mack and Tyson Bagent
The Khalil Mack to the Bears rumor won’t go away, but now there’s another rumor making the rounds

Bears may explore trading for Tyson Bagent
The Baltimore quarterback room was decimated on Sunday. With nine days left in the trading period, the Ravens could start looking for help elsewhere. Starter Lamar Jackson is heading to injured reserve with a thumb injury that could end his season. Backup Tyler Huntley has a toe injury; its severity is to be determined. One name to watch, as mentioned on Football Night in America, is Tyson Bagent. Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle had that same position last year in Chicago. And the Bears have three quarterbacks. Bagent has a $4 million salary in 2026, and a $4.25 million compensation package in 2027. The Bears also have Case Keenum under contract, behind Caleb Williams. The Ravens, we’re told, may explore the possibility of acquiring Bagent. We’re also told that it won’t be cheap to get him. That’s how it goes when a team develops an in-season need for a quarterback. The price goes up, as reflected by the urgency of the effort to find a replacement. If Huntley will miss time, the Ravens need to do something. The only other quaterback on the roster is Joe Fagnone, who played after Jackson and Huntley were hurt. The Ravens have no quarterbacks on the practice squad. Diego Pavia was on the 90-man roster in the offseason; he was cut just before the opening of training camp. Austin Reed was later signed to the roster during camp, after Skylar Thompson was placed on injured reserve

Bears vs. Patriots: How to watch as Chicago aims to stop Drake Maye's hot streak on 'TNF'
The Chicago Bears, coming off a win in Caleb Williams' return, host the New England Patriots who have won three straight games, largely due to Drake Maye's recent hot streak. Maye has significantly improved his passing statistics over the last three weeks, showing a particular resurgence in deep ball accuracy. Despite facing challenges with injured receivers like A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, Maye has led the Patriots to victory

Tyson Bagent - Chicago's backup for Week 6
sleeper-rotowire+45 stories · 30dSource unavailable
With Caleb Williams (hamstring) active, Tyson Bagent will serve as the Bears' backup quarterback against the Falcons on Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Williams missed Chicago's last three games due to a torn right hamstring, but the third-year pro has been cleared to return for Sunday's road game. As such, Bagent will revert to backup duties while Case Keenum (coach's decision, inactive) serves as the emergency third quarterback

Bears expected to start Caleb Williams vs. Falcons, per report
The Chicago Bears are planning to start quarterback Caleb Williams on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons , according to multiple reports . Williams missed three games due to a torn hamstring and this week was able to return to practice at full capacity and took the starter's reps. He is officially listed as questionable for their Week 6 game, but a full week of practice showed he was trending in the right direction. Before going down with his injury, Williams played in two games: a 59-37 win over the Carolina Panthers and a 9-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings , the game where he suffered the torn hamstring. He had a 65.6 completion percentage, 407 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in his two appearances. Williams reposted a compilation video on TikTok earlier on Saturday that had many believing he was celebrating his return. The video starts with a compilation of criticisms of how he reacted to his injury, followed by a message from a fictional character from the Chicago-based show "The Bear," who says, "I think that flicked a switch in me where I was like, f--- you. Watch this." The video then goes into highlights of Williams playing. Caleb Williams reposted this TikTok He might go off on Sunday 😳 pic.twitter.com/6UVgluc3Fx The 24-year-old has openly criticized how people have reacted to his injury. When he was carted off, Williams gave a thumbs-up and raised his fist, which, to many, made it seem like the injury was very severe. Shortly after, there were reports that Williams may not miss a game. Williams feels his "character has been attacked" and said to the media this week , "It was a hamstring tear and a pretty serious one. We got a grade, but I wouldn't say it's deserved to be put out there after all the false ones. So next question." In his absence, the Bears have leaned on Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum , who were able to record two wins of the three games without their starter. Chicago is coming off a 31-7 loss to the Green Bay Packers . In Week 5's loss, head coach Ben Johnson benched Bagent for Keenum after Bagent went 12-of-21 with 87 yards, two picks and no touchdowns. Keenum didn't fare much better, going 11-of-19 with 108 yards, one interception and no touchdowns. Getting Williams back should be a big boost for the Bears offense, as they sit at 3-2 in a difficult division where the race is close and the top team, the Vikings , have yet to lose. Williams was drafted as the top pick in the 2024 draft and helped lead the team to the playoffs in his second season with the team. He did not miss a game in his first two seasons

Reports: Caleb Williams to start for Bears Sunday
Bears quarterback Caleb Williams was coy about his availability for Sunday’s game against the Falcons during a Friday press conference, but he seemed to send a message with a social media post later in the day. Williams posted a video that strongly suggested he would be returning from the hamstring injury that caused him to miss the last three weeks and multiple reports on Saturday afternoon confirm that is the case. Williams is set to start for the 3-2 Bears against the 2-3 Falcons. Williams was a full participant in practice all week, but the Bears listed him as questionable on Friday. The Bears won the first two games that Williams missed, but they struggled with Tyson Bagent at quarterback in last Sunday’s loss to the Packers

Tyson Bagent - Could be QB2 against Atlanta
sleeper-rotowire+45 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Whether Bagent starts or serves in a backup role against the Falcons on Sunday depends largely on whether Caleb William (hamstring) is cleared to return from a three-game absence, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports. Williams strung together a trio of full practices during Week 6 prep, but he's not quite out of the woods yet as the team manages the third-year pro's hamstring injury. If Williams is not cleared to return, then it's not entirely clear whether Bagent or Keenum would get the starting nod, with head coach Ben Johnson being mum on those two options following Friday's practice. Bagent led the Bears to a Week 4 win against the Jets but was benched in the third quarter of Chicago's Week 5 loss to Green Bay after throwing a second interception
