Keenum leads Bears past Eagles 27-7

Published 29 September 2026

The Chicago Bears defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 27-7 on Monday, with Case Keenum throwing two touchdown passes and running for another in his first regular-season appearance since 2023. The win moved Chicago to 2-1, while Philadelphia also fell to 2-1. Keenum started because quarterback Caleb Williams was inactive with a right hamstring injury. Tyson Bagent, who had cleared concussion protocol, was available but did not start. Keenum completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards without an interception, connecting with Luther Burden for an eight-yard touchdown and Kalif Raymond for a 41-yard score. He capped the scoring with a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Chicago led throughout and held a 10-7 advantage at halftime. Philadelphia scored its only touchdown on Jalen Hurts’ one-yard run as the first half ended. The Bears extended their lead with a field goal and Keenum’s pass to Raymond in the third quarter, then pulled away with the quarterback’s rushing score. The Bears’ defense limited the Eagles to seven points and created three takeaways.
