Khalil൲ Herbert is a trivia answer that wi♑ll stump your friends in the future.

The question will be “who scored the first offensive touchdown of the Caleb Williams era?”

And just ✃in case someone calls you out on it, will be here:

The Khalil Herbert plunge gave the Bears their first offensive touchdown of the 2024 season. More importantly, it cut Chicago’s deficit to 13-10 (after the Cairo Santos PAT try) against the Houston Texans on Sunday Night Football. Herbert’s score capped an 8-play, 49-yard drive that chewed up 3 minutes and 10 seconds of game time. For what it’s worth, the Bears will get the ball coming out of halftime, so things are going in their favor for the time being. I’m looking forward to seeing what halftime adjustments are made.
