Head coach Ben Johnson said Monday that Williams (hamstring) will remain out for the Bears' Week 5 game against the Packers, Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis:With Williams set to miss a third straight game while he continues to recover from a Grade 2 right hamstring strain, the Bears will have Tyson Bagent make a second consecutive start under center. Williams hasn't practiced in any fashion since sustaining the injury in a Sept. 20 loss to the Vikings, but if he's able to get back on the field in some capacity during Week 5 prep, it would bode well for his chances of returning to the lineup Week 6 versus the Falcons.
