(670 The Score) Before hosting the Dolphins and Bills in preseason games in August at Soldier Field, the Bears will welcome both teams to Halas Hall.
The Bears will conduct joint practices with the Dolphins and Bills at their headquarters in Lake Forest, sources said. The exact dates and times for those practices haven’t been announced, but they’ll take place in the days before the preseason games.
