Outlook Kyle Monangai

Kyle Monangai at Green Bay — Flex Value Depends on Thumb Injury Status

Monangai is currently day-to-day with a right thumb injury suffered against the Jets, leaving him questionable heading into Week 5 at Lambeau Field. Operating alongside D'Andre Swift on the depth chart, Monangai broke out with 146 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 30 carries last week before exiting, proving his value in Chicago's run game.

Rostered in 91% of leagues, Monangai enters the week as a volatile flex option. Our projections anticipate a scaled-back workload of approximately 10 carries for 46 yards and 8 fantasy points, but his red-zone role provides a decent scoring floor if he plays. Fantasy managers should monitor his practice reports closely throughout the week.
