Monangai avoided serious injury in what looked like a scary scene Sunday when he went down at the end of a run after being tangled with
defensive tackle Grady Jarrett. He wasn’t tackled, as some suggested on social media. Monangai lying on the ground in pain and grasping his right knee didn’t look good. He has a hyperextended knee and is considered week to week. If the Bears were overly concerned about the situation, I’m not sure they would have waived undrafted rookie running back Coleman Bennett on Monday. With that move they’re down to three backs competing for a spot or spots at the back of the roster: Roschon Johnson, Salvon Ahmed and Brittain Brown.
