Mongai was limited at practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai filled in for an absent D'Andre Swift (groin) this past Sunday in Cincinnati and rolled a leaky Bengals defense to the tune of 198 yards from scrimmage on 29 touches. He's now dealing with a health concern of his own, and both Monangai and Swift operated with a cap on their reps to begin Week 10 prep. The situation bears watching as the week continues to see who among the duo will be available Sunday versus the Giants.

Monangai rushed 26 times for 176 yards and brought in three of five targets for 22 yards in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie seventh-round pick got the starting call with both D'Andre Swift (groin) and Roschon Johnson (back) sidelined, and Monangai delivered even better returns than he was already projected for while facing a highly porous Bengals defense. Monangai's longest run of the day went for an impressive 39 yards, one of his three gains of 10-plus yards on the ground. The standout performance certainly gives the Bears confidence -- and perhaps the luxury of sitting Swift out an extra week if he's not fully healthy -- when they draw another extremely favorable matchup for the running game in that of the visiting Giants in Week 10.

Monangai is poised to lead the Bears backfield Sunday at Cincinnati in the wake of D'Andre Swift (groin) being ruled out, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Both Swift and Roschon Johnson (back) were unable to practice this week due to their respective injuries, and Chicago ruled out both players on Friday's practice report. Swift's health concern in particular has been lingering for weeks, so perhaps the Bears are giving him the week off with the long term in mind. In any case, Monangai will be the primary beneficiary Sunday, and the rookie seventh-round pick's average of 4.4 yards per carry so far as a pro indicates a fruitful performance is very possible against the Bengals' league-worst run defense (151.9 yards per game).

Monangai rushed seven times for 24 yards and caught his lone target for 25 yards in the Bears' 30-16 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai has between 16 and 24 rushing yards in three of his last four contests, with an 81-yard effort and a touchdown in Week 7. His current workload keeps him a fantasy reserve unless opportunities expand.

Monangai rushed 13 times for 81 yards and one touchdown and caught two passes for 13 yards in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai recorded his first game with more than seven rushes and 28 yards. Some of his increased work came because the Bears won by double digits. It's unlikely this level of workload continues unless D'Andre Swift misses time.

Monangai rushed five times for 19 yards and caught his lone target for 25 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai has fewer than 20 rushing yards in three straight contests, but he reached a season-high 25 receiving yards in Week 6, keeping him in a fantasy reserve role.

Monangai (thigh) was a full practice participant Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie came out of a Week 5 bye listed with a new injury, but he'll apparently be fine for Monday's game at Washington, likely filling his usual role as the No. 2 running back. Monangai took 20 touches for 85 yards over the first four weeks of the season, failing to make a move despite D'Andre Swift's mediocre results as the lead back.

Monangai (thigh) did not practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It's Monangai's first appearance on the injury report this season. The seventh-round rookie has carried the ball just 17 times for 62 scoreless yards through four games, adding three catches for 23 yards on five targets. Monangai is little more than an end-of-bench stash in fantasy.

Monangai rushed four times for 18 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai has seen his rushing attempts fall in each of the last two weeks, and he's been limited to 18-36 yards in the last three games. Unless D'Andre Swift misses time, Monangai will be a low-floor fantasy option.

Monangai rushed six times for 16 yards and caught a four-yard pass in the Bears' 31-14 win over the Cowboys on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Monangai didn't handle a rushing attempt in Week 1, but with the Bears playing in blowouts the last two weeks, he has averaged 6.5 carries over that span. Until Monangai establishes a role in close games, it's unclear how much work he'll see as the No. 2 running back behind D'Andre Swift.
