On the third play of the drive, Williams threw across the field and Kamari Lassiter intercepted the pass, but Henry To'oTo'o nullified the ball with a defensive hold.

Later, Williams attempted to break free, and Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair landed a heavy hit on the Bears sideline.

Al-Shaair showed up and got into a fight with members of the Bears, which inflamed the home fans. A scuffle ensued, but no penalty flags were issued.

With Anderson's sack, he has a total of 1.5 sacks for the night entering the fourth quarter.
