With Caleb Williams recovering from a hamstring injury, the Bears may turn to Tyson Bagent Sunday against the Jets.

"It's all about Case Keenum," Johnson said. "What he was able to do here tonight, I thought he did an extraordinary job. When the running game's not going, being able to lean into the passing game as a play caller . . . He played really efficient football and I couldn't be more proud of him for that."
Keenum started against the Eagles because Caleb Williams is out with a hamstring injury and second-string quarterback Tyson Bagent spent most of the week in the league's concussion protocol. Bagent was active as the Bears' No. 2 quarterback, and Johnson said it's too soon to say whether Bagent will be No. 1 against the Jets.
"We'll have a discussion as a coaching staff and we'll see where we need to go from here," Johnson said. "But I said it last week and I'll say it again: There was a reason Tyson ended training camp as our No. 2 quarterback."
