On a scramble play after the turnover, Jordan Love found Christian Watson wide open with room to run. The former second-round pick ran towards his endzone. In an effort to avoid a tackler in front of him, the Packers wide receiver leaped into the air. However, Bears cornerback Jaquan Brisker came down and forced the ball out of Watson's hands.
The result of the play was that the ball was spotted where Watson fumbled it, around the one-yard line. It took a few plays, but the Packers ended up scoring a touchdown on a Jordan Love pass to Romeo Doubs .
