MINNEAPOLIS — The Bears have nothing left to play for in the standings anymore at 4-9, but they they’re still looking to upend the Vikings on “Monday Night Football.” It’s imperative that rookie quarterback Caleb Williams plays well over the final four games, and the Bears get a chance to hurt a division rival in its bid for playoff seeding.
The Vikings go into the game at 11-2 and have a chance to pull even with the NFC-leading Lions, who lost Sunday to the Bills.
The Bears are relatively healthy for this point in the season, and running back D’Andre Swift will play despite a groin injury that prevented him from going through a full practice leading up to the game.
Left tackle Braxton Jones is out with a concussion, leaving the Bears to likely start rookie Kiran Amegadjie.
Here are the Bears’ inactives:
LT Braxton Jones (concussion)
RB Roschon Johnson (concussion)
OL Ryan Bates (concussion)
S Ameer Speed
LB Noah Sewell
DT Gervon Dexter (knee)
