The Bears saved one of their best plays for the final game of the regular season.
They sent two punt returners deep for a comeback in the first quarter of last Sunday’s game in Green Bay and wide receiver DJ Moore appeared to move toward the left sideline to catch the ball while it was in the air. The Packers’ coverage team followed him, meaning defensive back Josh Blackwell had no one around him when he actually sent the ball across the field.
Blackwell scampered 94 yards for a touchdown, helping the Bears end a 10-game losing streak.
Blackwell had six other punt returns on the season, but none were nearly as memorable as the one that led to him being named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week.
