Overview
- The Chicago Bears play the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field with kickoff scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday, Sept. 28, and the game will air nationally on ESPN and ABC.
- Caleb Williams is sidelined by a hamstring injury and Case Keenum is expected to start for Chicago, a move that reshapes the Bears’ game plan and quarterback experience on the field.
- Philadelphia enters the game 2-0 with Jalen Hurts having thrown five touchdown passes through two games, while the Eagles’ offense and run defense have shown uneven results so far.
- Viewers can stream the game on ESPN Unlimited and NFL+, and third-party services like Sling are offering short-term passes priced at $4.99 for one day, $9.99 for three days and $14.99 for seven days as alternative ways to watch.
- The matchup highlights two trends to watch: how an unexpected starter changes the Bears’ immediate offensive outlook and how fragmented streaming options are shaping how fans choose to follow nationally televised NFL primetime games.
