CANTON, Ohio — Officials cleared the field and the seats in the third quarter of the Hall of Fame game between the Bears and Texans because of lightning and heavy rain at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium.

The Bears led 21-17 with 3:31 left when the game was stopped at 10:16 p.m. Eastern. It is unclear whether or when play will resume.

The Bears did not play quarterback Caleb Williams or the rest of their starters, and the Texans held out Pro Bowl quarterback C.J. Stroud and their starters as well.
