Bears Lose Home Opener 9-3 Against Vikings; Williams Suffers Hamstring Injury

Both quarterbacks left Week 2 games with injuries, and Washington coach Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels dislocated his left elbow.

  • On Sunday, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams left the team's 9-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in the fourth quarter after suffering a non-contact right hamstring injury and was carted off the field at Soldier Field.
  • Rainy conditions at Soldier Field stifled offensive momentum for both teams, limiting the Bears to three points one week after they scored an NFL-record 59 points against the Carolina Panthers.
  • Backup Tyson Bagent replaced Williams, but the offense failed to score a touchdown when Cairo Santos' 23-yard field goal attempt was blocked by Vikings cornerback Isaiah Rodgers.
  • Bears coach Ben Johnson reported Williams was in "good spirits" and walking without crutches after the game, while the team will conduct an MRI on Monday to determine injury severity.
  • The Bears must prepare for a Monday, September 28, matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, with the coaching staff facing an immediate decision on the starting quarterback position.
