What draft experts said about new Bears RB Kyle Monangai

The Chicago Bears added another weapon for Ben Johnson's offense with the selection of Rutgers running back Kyle Monangai with the 233rd overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

Monangai posted back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons with the Scarlet Knights. He had a career year last season with 256 carries for 1,279 yards and 13 touchdowns. He added 14 receptions for 75 yards and one score. Monangai has zero career fumbles in 670 attempts, per Pro Football Focus.

Monangai joins a Bears running back room led by D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson, so the Rutgers product will have an opportunity to compete for carries and a roster spot.
