Broncos want to host Bears for joint practices in August

The Broncos hope to host the Bears for a preseason game and joint training camp practices in August.

The Denver Broncos and Chicago Bears would like to hold joint practices together this summer, according to a report from KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis. The two teams have made their request known to the league and details will wait to be sorted out until after the preseason schedule is confirmed.

As long as the NFL signs off (and there’s little reason to believe it wouldn’t), Denver will host Chicago for a preseason game in August and the two teams will hold joint practices together leading up to that game.

The Broncos also hosted the Bears for joint practices in 2018. Last summer, Denver hosted the San Francisco 49ers. The Broncos hosted San Francisco in four of the last five summers.

In addition to Chicago and the 49ers, Denver has also held joint practices with the Houston Texans (2003, 2005, 2014), Dallas Cowboys (2007, 2008) and Carolina Panthers (1996). The Broncos will likely announce their training camp schedule in mid-to-late June.
