Good morning, Chicago.

Cairo Santos made a 48-yard field goal as time expired to give the Bears a 19-17 win over the Vikings on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium

Santos’ field goal came moments after the Vikings took the lead on a 15-yard touchdown pass from quarterback J.J. McCarthy to wide receiver Jordan Addison. That score put the Vikings ahead 17-16 with 50 seconds remaining.

But Devin Duvernay’s 56-yard kickoff return put the Bears immediately into field-goal range, setting up the opportunity for Santos to win the game. Santos, who missed his previous try, made the 48-yard kick and finished his day 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts.

It wasn’t pretty by any means, but the Bears scratched and clawed their way to their seventh win in eight games after watching a 16-3 lead slip away in the fourth quarter. They improved to 7-3 on the season and avenged their Week 1 loss to the Vikings.
