The last time the Bears were on Sunday Night Football, they were handled by the Los Angeles Chargers 30-13. Then, Tyson Bagent started at quarterback. Now, it'll be Caleb Williams.

The Bears and Texans are pretty familiar with each other. The two squared off in the Hall of Fame Game in August to kick off the preseason. The two will play for keeps now in Houston. The last time these two teams played was in 2022, when then-Bears linebacker Roquan Smith intercepted a pass to preserve a win.
