Another DNP on Thursday
Monangai (thumb/toe) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
With back-to-back absences to begin Week 5 prep due to thumb and toe injuries, Monangai now has only one more chance to mix into drills Friday, at which point the Bears could make a ruling on his availability for Sunday's game at Green Bay. Meanwhile, backfield mate D'Andre Swift (hip/knee) upgraded to limited Thursday, seemingly putting him in a better spot to suit up this weekend.
