🔥 Why Fans Should Tune In
The preseason finale is less about the score and more about securing a roster spot. Chiefs rookies like Josh Simmons (LT) and Omarr Norman-Lott (DT) aim to impress after last week’s defensive struggles against Seattle’s run game. For the Bears, Caleb Williams is expected to play a few series, fine-tuning his game for the NFL’s pace. With roster cutdown day on August 27, this game is a make-or-break moment.
