Overview

  • Jake Moody, elevated after Cairo Santos’ quadriceps injury, hit four field goals including the 38-yard winner and earlier makes from 47, 48 and 41 yards, with one attempt blocked in the fourth quarter.
  • Washington committed three turnovers — Jayden Daniels’ first interception of the season, a late botched handoff recovered by Chicago, and a Jacory Croskey-Merritt fumble — that the Bears converted into points.
  • D’Andre Swift sparked Chicago with 108 rushing yards and a 55-yard catch-and-run touchdown, while Caleb Williams went 17-of-29 for 252 yards with a touchdown and a rushing score.
  • Short-handed at receiver with Terry McLaurin and Noah Brown out and Deebo Samuel listed as questionable, Washington still got 19-of-26 passing for 211 yards and three TDs from Daniels.
  • Chicago improved to 3-2 with a third straight win despite nine penalties — including an illegal formation that erased a Rome Odunze touchdown — as Washington fell to 3-3.
