Bears rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent made his first NFL start against the Raiders on Sunday, and he’s off to a solid start.
Following a three-and-out on their opening possession, Bagent led Chicago on a methodical 12-play, 69-yard scoring drive that took 6:22 off the clock.
Running back D’Onta Foreman scored on a two-yard touchdown run to give the Bears a 7-0 lead in the first quarter.
