In true “Monsters of the Midway” form, Kevin Byard has won the admiration of the Chicago faithful exactly the way legends of the past did: by generating takeaways. Unrivaled in his spot as the NFL’s interceptions leader through 11 weeks, the Bears’ big-play creator arrived with another statement against New Orleans by playing “centerfielder” on a downfield pass attempt. Oct. 19, 2025 chronicled a vintage, defensive-minded victory, as Byard’s Bears conquered the Saints for a 26-14 win; alongside the pick, Byard also tallied two tackles.
