Rodgers and Turner help the Vikings shut down the Bears for a 9-3 win in the rain
Isaiah Rodgers recovered a fumble and blocked a late field-goal attempt, contributing to the Minnesota Vikings' 9-3 victory over the Chicago Bears in a rainy Sunday game at Soldier Field. The Vikings limited Caleb Williams and the Bears to just 297 yards of offense, thanks to a strong defensive performance led by Dallas Turner and Byron Murphy Jr. Aaron Jones rushed for 105 yards, helping the Vikings improve to 2-0 on the season, their first since opening the 2024 season with five consecutive wins.
CB Blake Cashman left the game in the third quarter but returned to action. CB Jalen Redmond recorded a fumble recovery, but Rodgers ultimately recovered the crucial fumble that sealed the game. With this win, the Vikings look to continue their strong start to the season.
