The Cincinnati Bengals will face the Chicago Bears on Saturday evening at Paycor Stadium in their second preseason matchup of the summer. The contest is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. and will air on Fox 19, also known as WXIX-TV, for local viewers.
Both teams participated in a joint practice session on Thursday leading up to the game. Neither squad reported significant injuries to key players during the workout. However, their approaches to the evening’s contest differ notably: Cincinnati plans to keep its starting lineup on the sidelines, while Chicago intends to play its starters, though head coach Ben Johnson has not specified how much playing time they will receive.
Both teams enter the matchup with winning preseason records. The Bengals defeated the Detroit Lions 16-14 in their opening preseason game, while the Bears earned a victory over the Cleveland Browns in their most recent outing. The game represents the second-to-last preseason engagement before the regular season begins.
