Bears likely to start Case Keenum against Eagles on Monday

SB Nation

Chicago is likely to start third-string quarterback Case Keenum when it hosts the 2-0 Philadelphia Eagles on Monday at 7:15 p.m. CT on ESPN and ABC; the Bears are without their top two quarterbacks. Philadelphia is coming off a 24-20 win over Tennessee.

Chicago beat Philadelphia 24-15 on Black Friday last season, rushing for 281 yards to the Eagles’ 87 and forcing two Jalen Hurts turnovers. The Eagles’ offense ranks 13th in both points and yards this season.

Saquon Barkley is dealing with a stinger, and the preview says Monday’s injury report was unavailable at publication. Philadelphia has allowed 4.2 yards per carry and three rushing touchdowns. Chicago enters Week 3 tied for the third-most penalties (20); Philadelphia is tied for the third-fewest (9).
