The Minnesota Vikings faced the Chicago Bears on September 20, 2026, securing a low-scoring win at Soldier Field. The Vikings' offense struggled, managing only nine points, all from Will Reichard field goals. Despite limited offensive support, running back Aaron Jones rushed for 106 yards on 23 carries, a key contribution given teammate Jordan Mason's injury. Late in the game, Jones was hit hard by Tyrique Stevenson, raising questions about a potential penalty, which went uncalled. Jones, however, recovered quickly, showing no lasting effects from the hit.
