Will avoid injured reserve
Monangai (toe), per head coach Ben Johnson, remains week-to-week but is "trending in the right direction" and will avoid injured reserve, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Johnson's comments suggest Monangai could miss more time, but they also indicate he is not facing an extended absence. His status for Sunday's matchup with the Falcons will officially be revealed when the Bears release their final injury report of the week later Friday.
