Josh Blackwell's late-game heroics in Bears-Raiders game landed him an accolade

Less than a minute to go in the Chicago Bears-Las Vegas Raiders game, the team from the Windy City needed a big play from anyone to avoid Daniel Carlson from kicking the game-winning field goal for the Raiders.

Here comes Bears cornerback and special teams ace Josh Blackwell to the rescue. Blackwell came flying off the edge and was able to get his hands on the field goal to get the block and seal a 25-24 win for Chicago, a win that was desperately needed going into the bye week.

It was an incredible moment, only made better by the stories before the block.
