Kyle Monangai Sees Limited Role as D'Andre Swift Excels in Week 10
In the Chicago Bears' Week 10 victory against the Giants, rookie running back Kyle Monangai saw a limited role compared to D'Andre Swift. Swift commanded a 61% snap share, 62% carry share, and 56% route rate, while Monangai had 39% snap share, 33% carry share, and 39% route rate. This occurred in Swift's return from a groin injury. In other backfield news, the New York Giants' Tyrone Tracy took back control of the backfield in Sunday's road loss to the Bears, outcarrying Devin Singletary 14 to 8 with 71 yards, while Singletary had 20 yards and a slight edge in targets (3 to 2). The Kansas City Chiefs' Josh Simmons is expected to return to practice this week after tending to a personal matter. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Chris Godwin and Bucky Irving remain out with unclear return timelines due to fibula and shoulder/toe injuries, respectively. Haason Reddick is also uncertain for Week 11 with knee and ankle injuries. The Cincinnati Bengals have opened a 21-day injury window for Joe Burrow, who is returning to practice after turf toe. The Houston Texans' C.J. Stroud remains in concussion protocol, and M.J. Stewart will miss the rest of the season with a quad injury.
