Fairbairn connected from 56, 47, 59 and 53 yards, and Houston’s defense put heavy pressure on Caleb Williams for much of the game.
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn makes a 47-yard field goal during the first half of an NFL football game against the Chicago Bears Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024, in Houston.
Houston had trouble moving the ball in the second half and managed only a field goal, but its defense intercepted Williams twice to secure the victory. Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud throws under pressure from Chicago Bears defensive lineman Montez Sweat and defensive lineman Zacch Pickens, right, during the first half of an NFL football game Sunday, Sept. 15, 2024, in Houston. The Texans couldn’t get anything going on their next drive and punted with about 90 seconds left. But Williams was sacked by Danielle Hunter on second down and his fourth-down pass fell incomplete to allow Houston to run out the clock.
On Chicago’s second play of the next drive Williams escaped a sack only to throw another interception. This time he was picked off by rookie Kamari Lassiter, a second-round pick from Georgia.
