Evan McPherson shines in Bengals preseason game against Bears

Bengals kicker Evan McPherson had a standout performance in their preseason game against the Chicago Bears on August 23, 2026. McPherson successfully converted both of his field-goal attempts, including a notable 58-yarder, and made all three extra-point attempts. This follows a strong showing in the previous preseason game where he connected on a 56-yard field goal. His consistent performance throughout training camp suggests he is returning to form after a couple of uneven seasons. McPherson previously set the Bengals' franchise record with a 63-yard field goal during the 2025 season.
