Takes step back in loss
Bagent completed 12 of 21 passes for 87 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions while adding three rushes for 17 yards in the Bears' 31-7 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Bagent was ultimately benched in favor of Case Keenum after his second interception of the day with under a minute remaining in the third quarter. Prior to that, he wasn't able to keep the Bears competitive on a day when Chicago's defense was consistently victimized by Jordan Love and his top two receivers, Christian Watson and Matthew Golden. Bagent had put together a diametrically opposite performance in his Week 4 start against the Jets, and it appears unlikely he'll have a chance to atone for Sunday's struggles anytime soon since Caleb Williams appears to have a good chance of returning from his hamstring injury in next Sunday night's Week 6 road matchup against the Falcons.
