Grant followed up a great performance last week with an even better one in the Bears 45-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday night. Grant recorded 51 yards and a touchdown on offense, which included a shovel pass he took 46 yards to the endzone. The big highlight for Grant, however, was his 97-yard punt return for a touchdown late in the second quarter. That was the first punt return for a touchdown this season and ranks 10th in longest punt return in NFL history and is the longest in Chicago's team history.
