SALT LAKE CITY – Former Utah Utes and current NFL quarterback Tyler Huntley started for the first time and led the Baltimore Ravens on a game-winning drive in the final minute against the Chicago Bears.

With 1:41 left in the fourth quarter, the Bears scored a go-ahead touchdown.

Trailing 13-9, Huntley led the Ravens 72 yards down the field in 1:19.

With 22 seconds remaining, Devonta Freeman ran the ball into the end zone to put Baltimore in front for good.

Huntley finished the game 26/36 passing for 219 yards and one interception. He ran the ball seven times for 40 yards. Huntley was sacked six times.
