Case Keenum’s classy message on Tyson Bagent’s benching vs. Packers appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Chicago Bears looked all out of sorts against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Chicago’s offense was not nearly as dynamic and efficient as it usually is. And in the end, they were unable to beat Jordan Love and the Packers at Lambeau Field.
Tyson Bagent started the game under center for the Bears. Caleb Williams remains out with an injury, and Bagent had a solid game last week. Unfortunately, he threw two interceptions in this game. He was replaced by Case Keenum, who spoke about his message to Bagent on the sidelines after the benching.
“Yeah, I’ll keep that between us. Just encouraged him, loved on him. I told him I’ve had my a** kicked plenty of times, and nobody I’d rather have it kicked with than him,” the veteran signal-caller said, via Bears on Real.

The Packers defense came up big in this contest. They collected three interceptions against Chicago’s offense. The defensive line also put in work, recording four sacks against the Bears. Devonte Wyatt recorded two sacks himself.
This was a win the Packers certainly needed. With this victory, they keep themselves right beside their NFC North counterparts. With the Detroit Lions also winning on Sunday, this means three teams now carry a record of 3-2, including the Bears.
It’s a loss that will certainly sting for Chicago moving forward. They never want to lose a game like this. Especially to a division rival like Green Bay. They have a chance to bounce back next week when they take on the Atlanta Falcons.
