Kyle Monangai’s first start was a revelation.

He might get another one Sunday.

D’Andre Swift, the Bears starter who was healthy all week, missed practice Friday for what the team called personal reasons and is questionable to play Sunday against the Giants.

After sitting out a week’s worth of practices last week leading up to the because of a nagging groin injury, Swift was limited in practice Wednesday and a full participant Thursday. He said Wednesday he planned to play against the Giants.

If he doesn’t, Monangai will get a chance to build on the 26-carry, 176-yard performance he posted against the Bengals in his first career start.
