The Chicago Bears will face the Indianapolis Colts in their second preseason game.
Following two joint practices, Matt Eberflus and his coaching staff made the decision not to play quarterback Justin Fields and other select starters. Eberflus explains he believed there was a lot of work accomplished in the two practices against the Colts. That means there will be opportunities for players to make a strong impression with roster cuts just about two weeks away.
While there’s no Fields, there will be plenty of storylines to monitor in this game, including how roster bubble players fare and some developing position battles.
Here’s how you can tune into the preseason matchup:
