The Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers battle back-and-forth to the very last second in Week 17, 49ers pull off the win 42-38.
Chicago Bears kept pace offensively behind Caleb Williams, who topped 330 passing yards with multiple touchdowns, keeping fantasy managers afloat in Championship Week.

Heading into Monday Night Football he is currently wide receiver 1 on the week. On the last play of the game Burden injured his quad, where he was carted into the locker room.
Tight end Colston Loveland also contributed to the passing game hauling in 6 catches for 94 yards and a score, he is currently tight end 2 on the week. On the ground D’Andre Swift led the team 54 rushing yards and two touchdowns.
The back-and-forth contest featured nonstop scoring and proved to be a fantasy goldmine, especially for managers relying on core starters from both offenses in championship matchups.

Rome Odunze is now week-to-week with a stress fracture in his foot.
Rome Odunze has struggled the last few weeks. He he’s had 8.3 or less fantasy points in 4 out of the last 5 games. Now it has come out that he will miss with a stress fracture in his foot.
The timetable is said to be week-to-week which doesn’t bode well for the upcoming fantasy football playoffs. Caleb Williams will have to utilize his other weapons as the Bears try to maintain both the top seed in the NFC and the NFC North division. Rookies Luther Burden and Colston Loveland get a huge boost and are worth firing up against the Packers.

Rookie tight end Colston Loveland and rookie running back Kyle Monangai came through for the Chicago Bears on Sunday
A pair of new heroes emerged for the Chicago Bears in their 47-72 barnburner win over the Bengals in Cincinnati, taking center stage in a lineup chock full of star power.
Tight end Colston Loveland (10th overall) and running back Kyle Monangai (7th round) put on a show at Paycor Stadium against the hapless Cincinnati Bengals defense, who were powerless to stop Chicago’s dual-threat offensive attack.
Loveland, the first tight end selected in the 2025 draft (Michigan) burned the Bengals repeatedly over the middle after Cole Kmet temporarily exited the game upon aggravating a back injury. The 6-foot-6, 246-pounder reeled in six catches for 118 yards and a pair of touchdowns, including a galloping 59-yarder with 0:17 remaining that proved to be the game-winner.
Monangai powered through the Cincinnati front-seven, gashing them en route to a whopping 26-carry, 176-yard day (6.8 YPC) while adding a trio of catches. Monangai’s longest play from scrimmage was a 39-yard scamper. All told, he finished with an eye-popping 198 yards from scrimmage in his first career start.
Fantasy lowdown: Expect Loveland to maintain the starting tight end role going forward. While Monangai is at the mercy of a returning D’Andre Swift, he has more than earned the right to see his fair share of carries in Chicago’s backfield. Both players should remain on fantasy rosters for the rest of the season.

Bears head coach Ben Johnson confirmed with the media that wide receiver Luther Burden is in the concussion protocol.
The Chicago Bears announced during a press conference with head coach Ben Johnson that rookie wide receiver Luther Burden is in the concussion protocol. This opens the windows for fellow rookie tight end Colston Loveland to assume a bigger role in the offense against the Cincinnati Bengals. Both rookies have not had much of an impact on the offense thus far in the season.
Luther Burden has only had 13 catches for 171 yards and a touchdown through 8 weeks. The best stat we can pull from this limited opportunity is the 86.7% catch rate on his 15 total targets. Colston Loveland was deemed the best tight end in a loaded tight end class. He hasn’t had a lot of opportunities, with only 18 targets that resulted in 11 catches for 116 receiving yards and no touchdowns. Let’s hope Loveland can finally show his skill set off against the Bengals.
UPDATE (11/2)
Burden has been ruled out for today’s game versus Cincinnati.
