With everything on the line Monday night, Moody knew focus and presence would be key on his game-deciding kick.

A source told the Chicago Tribune that kicker Cairo Santos’ injury popped up again over the weekend, and now the Bears will turn to Jake Moody.

The Chicago Bears are getting back a core special teams player ahead of their matchup against the New Orleans Saints. On Saturday, the team announced they have activated running back Travis Homer from injured reserve.

Jake Moody didn't enjoy the best set of circumstances leading up to Monday, but the Bears kicker still delivered the game-winning field goal.

For the second game in a row, Jake Moody is in line to kick for the Chicago Bears while Cairo Santos deals with a right thigh injury.

The Bears on Friday ruled out kicker Cairo Santos for Sunday’s game against the Saints, opening the door for Moody to make his second straight appearance — and first at Soldier Field. He went 4-for-5 on field goals against the Commander and made a 38-yarder to win the game as time expired.

In fact, the Bears lost a game similar to this one last season, infamously giving up a Jayden Daniels "Hail Mary" to Noah Brown to lose 18-15. So when Daniels fumbled a snap on third and 1 with just over three minutes to go, Chicago's offense had just one thing in mind.

The Chicago Bears beat the Washington Commanders 25-24 at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Md. on Monday. Bears kicker Jake Moody made a game-winning field goal as time expired.
