STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Monangai's 28-point Week 4 and seven goal-to-go carries establish RB2/flex viability.

Monangai scored a career-high 28 fantasy points in Week 4 versus the Jets, rushing for 146 yards and two touchdowns on 30 carries with decisive ball security. He saw seven goal-to-go carries (converting two for touchdowns) while D'Andre Swift struggled in the low red zone; a second-half Swift fumble prompted coach Ben Johnson to lean on Monangai to close the game. With the Packers next (allowing 29 PPG to opposing running backs) and the Bears' run-game-focused system, both Swift and Monangai should be viewed as viable RB2/flex starters, with viability potentially sticking depending on weekly matchups.
