Bears, Raiders To Play 2019 Game In London

Cover Image

(670 The Score) London is calling for the Bears, who will play their 2019 game with the Raiders in the capital of England.

The NFL announced on Monday five games to be played outside of the United States -- four in London, one in Mexico City -- and it includes the Bears returning to England for the first time in eight years. Chicago will be the designated road team in London, meaning it will not lose a home game at Soldier Field.


It had been uncertain where the Bears and Raiders would play their game given the Raiders are entering their final year in Oakland. There had been speculation of potentially playing at the San Francisco Giants' Oracle Park. However, that now has changed.

A game date and time for the Bears and Raiders will not be announced until the NFL sets its full schedule. The league has also yet to designate whether the game will be played in Tottenham Hotspur's new stadium or Wembley Stadium, with there being two games in each.

The Bears have twice before played outside of the United States, beating the Bills 22-19 in Toronto in 2010 and beating the Buccaneers 24-18 a year later in London.
