CHICAGO, ILLINOIS — Cairo Santos made a career-long 58-yard field goal with 1:34 left, on Chicago's next possession after his 53-yard attempt hit the right upright, and the Chicago Bears held off the New England Patriots 30-24 on Thursday night at Soldier Field.
Caleb Williams threw for 308 yards and two touchdowns in his second game back from a hamstring injury, and kept the drive alive on third-and-9 from his own 10 with a throw to Rome Odunze. Luther Burden III had four catches for 130 yards and a touchdown, all in the first half. Drake Maye threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another for New England, but D'Marco Jackson intercepted him in the end zone in the first half. After the Patriots scored with 37 seconds left, Odunze recovered the onside kick.
Chicago is 5-2 with four wins in five games, and New England fell to 4-3. "Three hundred yards and a couple touchdowns is a good night," Bears coach Ben Johnson said of Williams.
Fifty-eight yards, one drive after the upright.
