It isn't yet clear whether Monangai (thumb) will be able to return for the Bears in Week 8. However, even if he can play, it will be hard to trust him against a Seahawks defense that just shut down the aforementioned Walker. This seems more like a spot in which D'Andre Swift will do damage through the air – the Seahawks have allowed 38 receptions to RBs this season, tied for third-most in the NFL – while Monangai will play second fiddle and be a TD-dependent flex option.

Monangai's thumb injury and Seahawks' strong run defense make him a TD-dependent flex.

Monangai's status for Week 8 is uncertain due to a thumb injury. Even if he can play, it will be hard to trust him against a Seahawks defense that just shut down Kenneth Walker. This spot favors D'Andre Swift through the air—the Seahawks have allowed 38 receptions to RBs, tied for third-most in the NFL—while Monangai will play second fiddle and be a TD-dependent flex option.
