Jake Moody goes from no job to kicking a winning field goal for the Bears against the Commanders
Jake Moody lifted the Chicago Bears to their third consecutive win by making a 38-yard field goal on the final play against the Washington Commanders.

Jake Moody kicked a 38-yard field goal as time expired and the visiting Chicago Bears upset the Washington Commanders 25-24 on Monday night.
Bears WR DJ Moore returned to Monday's game after an injury but was later taken by ambulance to a hospital. Here's the latest on his condition.

Ben Johnson-Commanders coaching saga: Revisiting how Bears coach spurned Washington before Dan Quinn hire
Bears coach Ben Johnson nearly became the Commanders' head coach before the franchise was forced to pivot to Dan Quinn.
The Bears did not activate Austin Booker or Travis Homer off IR vs. the Commanders and they elevated Jake Moody and Jonathan Ford.
Without those two receivers, the Commanders will rely heavily on Deebo Samuel, who himself is battling injuries and is officially questionable for Monday night. Zach Ertz is their only other reliable pass catcher, but Chicago's highly paid linebackers should be able to keep him in check.
