The NFL will officially release the schedule on Wednesday — and it has been reported that the full Week 1 schedule will be announced early in the morning, hours ahead of Weeks 2-17 — but we might already know who the LA Rams are playing in Week 1 and when.
And this would completely make sense, if true.
According to Danny Parkins of 690 The Score in Chicago, the Rams will be hosting the Bears on Sunday Night Football in Week 1. This would be a huge game for the NFL, not only because of the consistent draw of the Chicago Bears (for whatever reasons), but because it will allow them to once again showcase SoFi Stadium to a national audience.
