Bears K Cairo Santos makes game-winner at gun
Bears kicker Cairo Santos makes a game-winning field goal Sunday.When Roquan Smith intercepted Davis Mills with 70 seconds to play Sunday, Bears kicker Cairo Santos had a decision to make. Santos typically kicks his extra points from the right hash mark. A cross breeze during Sunday’s game, though, made him reconsider.
Santos told his coaches to put the ball at the left hash. That’s just what Justin Fields did when he took a knee at the 12-yard line, setting up a 30-yard try with three seconds to play that Santos made to clinch a 23-20 win against the Texans.
