Moody reverted to the Bears' practice squad Tuesday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Moody was called up from the Bears' practice squad for Monday's game against the Commanders due to the absence of Cairo Santos (thigh). Moody went 4-for-5 on his field-goal attempts Monday, which included a 38-yard kick as time expired to lift the Bears to a 25-24 victory. The 2023 third-rounder could be elevated for Chicago's Week 7 contest against New Orleans on Sunday if Santos is not cleared to play.

Moody went 4-for-5 on field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try Monday in a 25-24 win over Washington.

Moody made his Bears debut as a result of Cairo Santos being inactive due to a thigh injury. Moody instilled confidence with his first field-goal try, a successful 47-yarder early in the first quarter. The former 49er then hit a 48-yarder and a 41-yarder before having another 48-yard try blocked at the start of the fourth period. However, Moody was able to conclude a successful team debut by nailing a 38-yard field goal as time expired to give Chicago a one-point win. Whether or not he kicks again in Week 7 versus New Orleans likely depends on Santos' health and ability to suit up.

Gay went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his PATs in Monday night's 25-24 loss to the Bears.

Gay hit the left upright on a 50-yard field-goal try in the second quarter, missing his first kick since Week 3. The kicker later added a make from 53 yards to finish off the Commanders' first drive of the second half. Gay has gone 10-for-14 on field-goal attempts, including 4-for-7 from 50-plus yards, while making all 16 of his extra-point tries over six games this year.

Romo went 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his extra-point tries Monday in a 24-14 victory versus Buffalo.

The Falcons scored three touchdowns in the first half, and Romo converted the extra-point try each time. He was then called upon for a 37-yard field-goal attempt early in the fourth quarter and had it blocked. However, Romo was able to essentially seal the victory with a 33-yard make later in the period. Romo is now 8-for-11 on field-goal attempts on the campaign.

Prater did not attempt a field goal and went 2-for-2 on extra-point tries in Monday night's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

Prater went without a field-goal try for the first time this season, previously having notched multiple attempts in four of five games to open the year. With Tyler Bass (hip) still unable to return to practice, Prater seems likely to remain the team's starting kicker following Buffalo's bye week in Week 7.

Wright reverted to Tennessee's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Wright was elevated from the practice squad to kick for the Titans this past Sunday and made his lone field-goal attempt and only extra-point try. His opportunity came as a result of Joey Slye missing the game due to a calf injury. If Slye is sidelined again this Sunday against New England, Wright figures to kick for Tennessee again.

Moody will start Monday night's contest against the Commanders.

Moody was elevated from the practice squad to fill in for Cairo Santos (thigh) on Monday Night Football. Moody went 1-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made both his PATs in Week 1 with the 49ers before being let go by the team.

Santos (thigh) is inactive for Monday night's contest against the Commanders.

Santos will be forced to miss Week 6 while dealing with a right thigh injury. In Santos' place, Jake Moody will make his Chicago debut after being elevated from the practice squad for Monday Night Football.

The Bears have elevated Moody from the practice squad to the active roster for Monday's matchup against the Commanders.

Moody has been elevated to the game-day roster for Week 6 due Cairo Santos (hamstring) being listed as questionable. The transaction could be a sign that Santos is trending in the wrong direction to play Monday, in which case Moody will start as Chicago's placekicker, or simply a move made by the Bears for extra depth.

Bates made his lone field-goal attempt and both of his point-after tries in Sunday night's 30-17 loss to the Chiefs.

The 26-year-old from Arkansas hasn't missed a kick since the Lions' Week 3 win over the Ravens, converting on seven of nine field-goal tries and all 24 of his extra-point attempts through the team's first six games. Bates lines up for a potentially busy night in a Week 7 home matchup against the high-powered Buccaneers next Monday night.
