The Bears (3-4) have won back-to-back games for the first time since 2015 and will attempt to record three straight victories for the first time since they opened 3-0 in 2013.
The Bears have not allowed a defensive touchdown in consecutive games for the first time since 2005. Rookie safety Eddie Jackson led the effort last Sunday against the Panthers, scoring touchdowns on a 75-yard fumble return and a 76-yard interception return.
In the process, the fourth-round draft pick from Alabama became the first player in NFL history to record two defensive touchdowns of at least 75 yards in a game.
