Published September 29, 2026 · Updated September 29, 2026 · The Guardian

Backup quarterback Case Keenum delivered a stellar performance in his first start in nearly three years, leading the Chicago Bears to a 27-7 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Case Keenum, stepping in for injured Caleb Williams, was 24 for 34 for 247 yards passing. The 38-year-old veteran also scored his first rushing touchdown since 2019 on a one-yard plunge with 7:19 remaining in the game.

The Bears' defense limited Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts and the Eagles offense throughout the game, securing Chicago's first convincing victory of the season. syntagm.co.za
