Bears RB Damien Williams questionable to return with knee injury

The Chicago Bears have already lost two players to injury through the first half of Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.

After losing safety Eddie Jackson to a hamstring injury, running back Damien Williams is questionable to return to the game after suffering a knee injury.

Williams got the start for the Bears against the 49ers, although he struggled to get much going early. He had two carries for -3 yards.

But it wasn’t too big of a loss considering it opened the door for rookie running back Khalil Herbert to get more reps, and he’s dominated in this first half. Herbert has 13 carries for 66 yards (5.1 average) in the first half, and he’s continued to show why he’s earned starters carries until David Montgomery returns from a knee sprain.

The Bears lead the 49ers 13-6 in the second quarter.
