Bears offense to have similar feel to Chiefs

Jun 04, 2018

The Bears took Matt Nagy out of his job as the Chiefs offensive coordinator in order to make him their new head coach, but they aren’t taking all of the Chiefs out of Nagy.

Nagy told Dan Pompei of The Athletic that he estimates the offense in Chicago will have a 70–80 percent similarity to the one in Kansas City.

“It will be different in some regards, which is only fair to our coaches on offense and the ideas they have,” Nagy said. “But the identity is going to be the same. It will feel very similar to Kansas City’s. We’re in the lab now. That’s the fun part. All the coaches are giving their ideas and thoughts. Coach [Andy Reid] always said he had 51 percent of the say. So ultimately, he had final say. Now I have that. There are plays I liked that Coach [Reid] didn’t like, so now those plays are in.”

Fantasy Impact:

There has been some hype around the Bears offense this offseason. The key will be the progression of Trubisky, of course. But based on the names listed above, there is certainly some proven talent heading into the 2018 season.

Texans WR Nico Collins "long shot" to play Week 10

With Nico Collins still not practicing today and not designated to return from IR, it makes him a long shot to play Sunday night vs. the Texans.

Related Players: Tank Dell, Xavier Hutchinson, Robert Woods, Dalton Schultz

Fantasy Impact:

Since the injury to Stefon Diggs, Dell has been the only reliable piece of this receiving corps, and it looks like that will continue for one more week. C.J. Stroud can be benched in place of a streamer for Week 10.

“He’ll be fine,” Liam Coen says of Baker Mayfield’s toe, knowing he’s been limited but will be ready come Sunday afternoon vs. 49ers.

Related Players: Kyle Trask

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like Mayfield will suit up, but it's a pretty difficult matchup against the 49ers defense. He should be considered a top-15 option for Week 10.

Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell expected to make season debut on TNF

Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell (knee) expected to be active for tonight’s Bengals game barring unforeseen development, per sources.

Practiced in full this week and ready for his season debut. A jolt of speed in time for rivalry game.

Related Players: Derrick Henry, Justice Hill

Fantasy Impact:

We wouldn't expect a ton of usage out of Mitchell here, but it will probably come at the expense of Hill, rather than Henry, if it's a close game. We'll have to see how the backfield splits moving forward, but stashing Mitchell is certainly not a bad idea.
