2026 Week 6 Fantasy Football Breaking News: Caleb Williams Questionable vs. Falcons, Kyle Monangai Ruled Out

According to ProFootballTalk (NBC Sports), Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 6 game against the Falcons. Williams tore his hamstring in a Sept. 20 game and has missed three straight contests, but he logged a full practice Friday — his second full session of the week — which is an encouraging sign heading into the weekend.

The same report also confirms that running back Kyle Monangai has been ruled out against Atlanta with a thumb/toe injury. The two updates are directly connected from a fantasy standpoint: whoever starts at QB for Chicago shapes how much the Bears' backfield matters in this game, but Monangai won't be part of the equation regardless.

Two full practices to close the week after missing three games is about as positive a signal as you can get short of an official active designation. The source story notes he's questionable, not out, and the trajectory strongly favors him suiting up. If you're in a pinch at the QB position, he's worth a speculative start — but confirm his active status Sunday morning before locking lineups, because a hamstring injury never fully clears itself from the risk column until game time.

Kyle Monangai

Monangai is ruled out. The Bears backfield is already operating without him, so D'Andre Swift should have the full RB1 opportunity. Monangai is a clear drop-and-move-on move for redraft managers if your bench is squeezed.
