Three days after he intercepted two passes against the Falcons, Bears rookie cornerback Tyrique Stevenson was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week. He had five tackles and four pass breakups, too.
Stevenson is the first Bears defender to win the award in more than five years — safety Eddie Jackson did it last in Week 12 of 2018. He was the last Bears rookie to win the award, too, in 2017.
Receiver DJ Moore won the offensive award in Week 5.
