“Alright everyone, are you ready for Chicago Bears football?”

The Bears will open the preseason this summer just as they did last year, by hosting the Denver Broncos the weekend of August 10th-14th at Soldier Field in Chicago, IL.

After facing the Broncos, the Bears will play back-to-back road games. They’ll visit the Cardinals in (Phoenix) Glendale, AZ the weekend of Aug. 17th-21st and the Tennessee Titans in Nashville, TN  on Sunday, August 27th.

The Bears will then close the preseason by hosting the Cleveland Browns at Soldier Field on August 31st or September 1st. The two teams have met in the preseason finale every year since 2004, with the Bears holding a 7-6 advantage.

The exact dates and times for the games against the Broncos, Cardinals, and Browns will be released at a later date.

Last season the Bears lost their first three preseason games to the Broncos 22-0, Patriots 23-22, and Chiefs 23-7 before beating the Browns 21-7.
