Bears Set to Start Bagent vs Jets

Published October 2, 2026 · Updated October 2, 2026 · NBC Sports

Signs point to Tyson Bagent starting for the Bears against the Jets this Sunday as Caleb Williams continues recovering from a hamstring injury.

As Bears coach Ben Johnson prepares for a reunion with fellow former Lions coordinator Aaron Glenn, he's keeping the quarterback situation under wraps. Bagent has been taking first-team reps in practice, suggesting he'll start in place of the injured Caleb Williams.

Bagent earned the backup role after nearly pulling off a last-second win in Week 2 against the Vikings. Case Keenum started the previous game due to Bagent being in the concussion protocol, but Bagent is now getting the first-team work. moryak.biz
