On Saturday, the Chicago Bears claimed a dramatic 22-16 overtime victory against the Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field, led by rookie quarterback Caleb Williams. Following the game, Jonathan Owens, a safety for the Bears, saw his wife, Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, join fellow Bears” wives and girlfriends (WAGS) in playfully mocking the Packers.
In a TikTok video, Biles and the group donned cheese-grater hats, a jab at Packers fans who are often referred to as “Cheeseheads.” The Bears” victory was a sweet moment, especially after the Packers had initially taken the lead with two field goals from kicker Brandon McManus in the first quarter. A field goal by Cairo Santos later narrowed the gap to 3-6 in the third quarter.
With just 24 seconds left in regulation, Williams connected with wide receiver Jahdae Walker for a six-yard touchdown pass, pushing the game into overtime. In the extra period, Williams delivered a stunning 46-yard touchdown pass to DJ Moore, sealing the win for Chicago. Williams ended the night with 259 passing yards, completing 19 of 34 attempts and tossing two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, the Packers faced difficulties as quarterback Jordan Love exited the game due to a concussion after a hit from defensive end Austin Booker. Backup quarterback Malik Willis stepped in and completed nine of 11 passes for 121 yards and one touchdown.
With this victory, the Bears now lead the NFC North with an impressive 11-4 record and are on a two-game winning streak. In the post-game press conference, Williams shared insights about the pivotal touchdown pass to Moore, noting that it was a play they had practiced extensively during the week.
