After suffering a crushing 19-13 loss to the Houston Texans in week two, the Chicago Bears are hoping to turn things around in week three. Few fans anticipated Chicago’s offense to struggle so early in the season. Not to this degree, anyway.
Against the Indianapolis Colts in week three, Caleb Williams will have an even harder time getting going.
Breaking: Caleb Williams of the Bears Receives Horrible News Before the Colts-Bears Week 3 Match
The 33rd Team’s Ari Meirov claims that:
WR Keenan Allen (heel) was declared out of Sunday’s game against the Colts by the Bears, missing his second straight one.
When Allen joined Chicago, a significant role in the offense was anticipated of him. He will have participated in just one game out of three thus far. He has 29 yards from four receptions.
It will be critical for this team in the closing stages to have him back at his level of experience on the field. The following are Allen’s career statistics:
When playing the Chicago Bears in Week 3, the Colts have not ruled out any players.
According to head coach Shane Steichen, the Colts did not rule out any players for their Week 3 matchup against the Chicago Bears on Friday.
defensive end Laiatu Latu did not return from the Colts’ Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers due to a hip injury. He returned to practice on Friday after missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday.
Security Despite missing Week 2 due to a shoulder injury, Julian Blackmon resumed practice this week.
Josh Downs, a wide receiver with an injured ankle, did not play in the Colts’ opening two games. However, he stated earlier this week that he intended to make his debut on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
The Colts’ final practice report for Week 3 will be available later this Friday and will include injury designations.
Following a leak that prompts “hate” texts from followers, Will Levis modifies his phone number.
Quarterback Will Levis of the Tennessee Titans has had a difficult 2024 season both on and off the field.
Despite saying he hasn’t used social media in a long, he seems to be well aware of the unfavorable opinions some of his admirers have of him.
Levis publicly announced yesterday, following practice, that his mobile phone number was among the personal information that had been exposed. The quarterback claimed that as a result, he received “a lot of texts” from supporters.
Awful: #Titans QB Will Levis had to change his phone number after it leaked, and fans started to hate-text him.
"It sucks that the world is the way that it is."

Although he doesn’t say it outright, the offensive coordinator for the Titans makes an insinuation about whether or not the texts were hurtful. Levis told reporters on Thursday that “it sucks that the world is the way that it is.”
During a play against the Chicago Bears in Week 1, Levis became the target of online memes. After Levis mishandled the ball and hit a pick-six against the Bears, his apology went viral online.
BEARS PICK-6 FOR THE LEAD!

Subsequently, in Week 2’s game against the New York Jets, Levis tried a play that resembled Patrick Mahomes’s, scurrying out of the pocket as it began to collapse and flipping the ball backward to Tyjae Spears, but it was unsuccessful. The Jets would recover the pass for a fumble after the reverse flip pass failed to land.
Levis flips it backwards and its a Jets fumble recovery!

Following the bumble, Levis was observed being reprimanded by Titans head coach Brian Callahan as he left the sidelines. He went a step further to express his feelings about his quarterback’s decision-making at the press conference following the game.
“It was stupid,” Callahan said to the press. “He cost us points in the red zone last week by doing the exact same thing, and that is what it is. I was really displeased with him for costing us three points in a game where we most likely needed them because he is an adult and should know better.”
Levis’ play in the opening two weeks of the season may not have pleased Titans supporters or the world’s football online trolls. But hitting the quarterback square in the face is never the solution.
By now, Levis should have gotten a new phone number and concealed any other contact details.
The quarterback in his second season had a rough start, but the Titans have demonstrated that they are capable of being competitive even with errors. The first two weeks’ losses were separated by just one touchdown.
With five interceptions in two games, the young quarterback presently leads the league in this category. But this Sunday when the Green Bay Packers visit Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Levis and the Titans hope to make a difference. Kickoff airs on Fox at 1:00 PM.
