LAS VEGAS — Five days after he officially was named the Chicago Bears starting quarterback, rookie Justin Fields looks to lead the team to their first road victory against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium.
We’ve got live updates from the Week 5 game in Las Vegas.
2nd quarter: Fields finds Horsted for a TD
Bears quarterback Justin Fields hit tight end Jesper Hosted with a 2-yard touchdown pass to give the Bears a 7-3 lead with 13:11 to play in the first half.
It was Fields’ first career touchdown pass and Horsted’s second career touchdown catch and first since 2019.
The Bears leaned on running backs Damien Williams and Khalil Herbert to spark the drive and benefitted from three Raiders penalties.
After the first roughing-the-passer penalty on the Raiders, Fields hit Williams with an 18-yard pass to get into Raiders territory.
Herbert followed Williams’ 4-yard run with an 11-yard gain. Williams broke for a 14-yarder to get the Bears to the 10.
A second roughing-the-passer penalty and penalty for illegal use of hands to the face got the Bears to the 2-yard line, and Fields threw the touchdown pass two plays later.
1st quarter: Raiders go up 3-0
Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson made a 31-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead against the Bears with 4 minutes to play in the first quarter.
Raiders quarterback Derek Carr hit Darren Waller for a 29-yard pass to get the drive going. On third-and-7 from the 16-yard line, running back Kenyan Drake gained 8 yards. But after a 5-yard Josh Jacobs run, the Raiders were called for a holding penalty. Carr then threw two straight incompletions, and the Raiders turned to Carlson.
The Bears and Raiders each went three-and-out on their first drive. A false-start penalty on right tackle Germain Ifedi set the Bears back after Damien Williams opened the series with a 6-yard gain.
The Bears had help from a Raiders neutral zone infraction penalty on their second drive and still couldn’t get a first down. Justin Fields ran for 3 yards on third-and-4, and the Bears punted.
Chicago Bears inside linebacker Danny Trevathan is active for the Bears for the first time this season after missing the first four games with knee soreness.
The Bears brought Trevathan off injured reserve Saturday in advance of Sunday’s game against the Raiders.
Bears defensive coordinator Sean Desai wouldn’t say last week whether Trevathan would start over Alec Ogletree, who filled in well over the first month. Ogletree went through drills with Bears starters in pregame warmups.
Running back Ryan Nall will be active for the first time this season after the Bears moved him up from the practice squad Saturday. Safety Tashaun Gipson also returns after missing two games with a hamstring injury.
As was announced Saturday, defensive lineman Akiem Hicks is inactive for the Bears as he recovers from a groin injury. Quarterback Nick Foles, wide receiver Breshad Perriman, inside linebacker Joel Iyiegbuniwe and tight ends Jesse James and J.P. Holtz are also inactive for the Bears.
For the Raiders, running back Peyton Barber, defensive linemen Malcolm Koonce and Damion Square and offensive tackle Jackson Barton are inactive.
However, they will have to do it without running back David Montgomery, who is out several weeks with a sprained left knee. The Bears will turn to veteran Damien Williams and rookie Khalil Herbert to fill the hole. Bears coach Matt Nagy is hoping the addition of Williams in the offseason pays off.
“This situation when David gets hurt, we feel like, hey, for Damien to be able to come in here and help us, we feel like we’re in a good place,” Nagy said.
Meanwhile, the Raiders are coming off their first loss of the season, a 28-14 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers. Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw a season-low 196 yards and was sacked four times in the loss, but the Bears expect the Raiders to be ready to rebound.
“I know Derek. I know he’s a competitor,” outside linebacker Khalil Mack said. “And I know we’re going to have our hands full come Sunday. Looking forward to the challenge.”
The Bears ruled defensive lineman Akiem Hicks out to play because of a groin injury. Hicks missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, and was limited Friday.
Along with Montgomery, tight ends Jesse James (personal reason) and J.P. Holtz (quadriceps) and inside linebacker Joel Iyiegbuniwe (hamstring) will be out.
Mack, who has ribs and foot injuries, also returned to practice in a limited capacity Friday. He’s listed as questionable to play.
Safety Tashaun Gipson (hamstring), tight end Jesper Horsted (knee) and inside linebacker Christian Jones (back) also are listed as questionable.
