The Chicago Bears will be eager to rebound after a devastating loss against the Green Bay Packers. They'll attempt to get back into the winning column against the Falcons on Sunday.
The Bears will get a massive boost if quarterback Caleb Williams can return to the lineup for the Week 6 clash. He might have to do some heavy lifting, as the Falcons boast the league's fifth-best rush defense.
That'll especially be true if running back Kyle Monangai, who has been sidelined at practice with a toe/thumb injury, misses the contest.
However, the Falcons have injury concerns of their own. Cornerback C.J. Henderson was sidelined at practice on Wednesday with a groin injury, and linebacker Divine Deablo and Za'Darius Smith were limited participants. Meanwhile, quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who is dealing with a rib injury, was listed as a full participant.
The oddsmakers like the Bears' odds of coming away with a victory in Atlanta. According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Chicago is favored by 3.5 points heading into the matchup?
