πŸ’‘ Main takeaway:

In Monday night’s other game, Jake Moody nailed a 38-yard field goal with three seconds left, giving the Chicago Bears a thrilling 25-24 win over the Washington Commanders.

The San Francisco 49ers acquired Moody with a rare kicker pick in the third round of the 2023 draft, but then cut him with a poor Week 1 performance this season.

He was signed to the Bears’ practice squad and was activated for Monday’s game after being injured against Cairo Santos.

β€œIt feels great,” Moody said. “Getting all that support from all my teammates after the game was a great feeling,” he added.

Two Moody field goals and a quick touchdown from quarterback Caleb Williams put Chicago ahead 13-0 before quarterback Jayden Daniels found Chris Moore to cut the deficit to six points at Northwest Stadium.

Matt Gay and Moody traded field goals before Daniels threw to Luke McCaffrey and Zach Ertz for touchdowns as Washington opened up a 24-16 lead.

D’Andre Swift’s 55-yard touchdown run gave the Bears a chance to tie the game but they missed the two-point conversion, leaving the Leaders up 24-22.

But a Daniels fumble returned possession to the Bears, who drove down the field to make Moody’s game-winning layup with three seconds left, leaving the Commanders with a 3-3 lead.

“This is who we are. We’re fighting,” said Williams, who threw for one touchdown and 252 yards as his team moved to 3-2.

β€œWe qualified 3-2 because of our fight, because of the way we face adversity and come together.”
