When the NFL’s schedule is released next month, the Bears could end up playing a road game in Germany.
ESPN 1000 host David Kaplan reported this week that the Bears are expected to be the Chiefs’ opponent overseas.
Bears chairman George McCaskey, who is on the NFL’s international committee, wouldn’t say last week if the Bears were scheduled to go to Germany, insisting the league was “talking about announcing the visiting teams in the international games shortly before the schedule comes out.”
One source told the Sun-Times last week that the team facing the Chiefs — who would forfeit a game at Arrowhead Stadium — was expected to be either the Lions or Bears.
