Bears 2022 preseason schedule features Matt Nagy’s return to Chicago

Here’s a look at the Bears’ three-game preseason schedule, which features Matt Nagy’s return to Soldier Field with the Chiefs.

The Chicago Bears unveiled their 2022 schedule on Thursday night. But before the regular season gets underway, Chicago will play three preseason games.

The Bears will host one preseason contest at Soldier Field and wrap the preseason on the road in back-to-back games.

The preseason should provide fans with a glimpse at quarterback Justin Fields in his second season. Fields is sure to get plenty of reps during Chicago’s three preseason games, as the Bears are learning a new offense.

Starting last season, the preseason schedule has been trimmed from four games to three games, which is still good for some of the younger players trying to prove themselves and earn a roster spot.

One of the bigger storylines from this preseason schedule is the return of Matt Nagy to Chicago. After being fired by the Bears, Nagy reunited with Andy Reid in Kansas City, where he’ll serve as the Chiefs quarterbacks coach.

Here’s a look at the Bears’ three-game preseason schedule:

Week Date Opponent Time (CT)
1 Aug. 13 vs. Kansas City Chiefs 12:00 p.m.
2 Aug. 18 at Seattle Seahawks 7:00 p.m.
3 Aug. 27 at Cleveland Browns 6:00 p.m.

2020 Chicago Bears preseason schedule

The Bears announced their preseason slate, which includes games against the Browns, 49ers, Broncos and Titans.

The Chicago Bears’ 2020 regular-season schedule has been released, where we learned exactly how their season will shake out.

The Bears also announced their preseason slate, which includes home games against the Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers, as well as away games against the Denver Broncos and Tennessee Titans.

  • Aug. 13-17 vs. Cleveland Browns, Time TBD
  • Aug. 20-24 at Denver Broncos, Time TBD
  • Aug. 27-30 vs. San Francisco 49ers, Time TBD
  • Sept. 3 at Tennessee Titans, Time TBD

Interestingly enough, the Bears will play the Titans twice this year — once in the preseason and again in Week 9. Both of those games will be road games at Tennessee.

In Matt Nagy’s two-year coaching tenure in Chicago, preseason typically has been reserved for young guys competing for roster spots. Nagy has received criticism for resting his starters, including during the dress rehearsal games, where teams are known to play into the third quarter.

But this season will be different. That, following a disappointing 2019 campaign, which included one of the NFL’s worst offenses. Leading the preseason charge will be the Mitchell Trubisky vs. Nick Foles quarterback competition, which Nagy stressed will play into the preseason.
