Fowler: Monangai's turf toe an issue for 1-2 weeks
Key Points:
- Stefon Diggs (hamstring) did not practice on Friday and is expected to be ruled out for Week 5 against the Giants, with rookie Antonio Williams likely to see increased targets, especially if Terry McLaurin (hamstring) also misses the game.
- D’Andre Swift (hip/knee) is expected to play in Week 5 for the Bears after limited practice, while Kyle Monangai (thumb/toe) remains doubtful; Roschon Johnson would serve as the Bears’ RB2.
- Jets’ receivers Adonai Mitchell (finger) and running back Breece Hall (quad) will miss Week 5, with Isaiah Williams and Braelon Allen stepping up in their absence, respectively.
- Free agent WR Tyreek Hill testified in a Miami civil assault case related to allegations from 2025; the NFL may decide on a suspension after the trial concludes, while teams may hold off on signing him until then.
- Cowboys’ CeeDee Lamb suffered a quad bruise in Week 5 but is not expected to miss significant time, while George Pickens had a strong performance and could see increased targets with Lamb's injury ahead of their Week 6 game against the Packers.
