While the Los Angeles Rams continue to explore free agency to see which players are still worth considering along with preparing for April’s draft, the NFC champions must also be wondering about which opponent they could end up facing in Week 1 of the 2019 season.
On Monday, the NFL announced that this year’s opener to the new season on Thursday will consist of the Green Bay Packers traveling to the Windy City to take on the NFC North champions in the Chicago Bears.
Normally over the years, the defending Super Bowl champions are the ones that usually host the first game of the new season, but it looks like the New England Patriots will be hosting the first Sunday night contest instead.
