Kenny Pickett still working exclusively with the third team

Jul 29, 2022

Through two days of camp, Mitch Trubisky has taken all of his 32 snaps with the first team, Mason Rudolph has taken all 31 of his snaps with the second team, and rookie Kenny Pickett has taken all 28 of his snaps with the third team.

Fantasy Impact:

The quarterback battle has started off with a whimper as it pertains to first-round selection Pickett. The rookie was also running with the third team in Spring, so it would appear that Trubisky has hold of the starting job, at least this early in the process. Reporter Mark Kaboly would remark, "Trubisky and Rudolph weren't spectacular by any mean, but it has been quite obvious through two practices that they are far ahead of Pickett..."

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
