How to watch Chiefs vs. Bears today: Time, TV channel, prediction for preseason Week 3

Everything you need to know to watch the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears in Week 3 of the NFL preseason.

The Kansas City Chiefs are hoping to secure a victory in their final preseason game against the Chicago Bears on Friday, August 22.

Though most of the game will be in the hands of the backups, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the starters are expected to see some playing time as they prepare for Week 1 of the regular season in São Paulo, Brazil, in September.

Head coach Andy Reid is expected to make final roster decisions in the coming days, so second- and third-string players will need to impress on Friday if they hope to join the team on its quest for a fourth-straight Super Bowl appearance.

Here's how to watch the Chiefs' preseason Week 3 matchup with the Bears, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

Chiefs 30, Bears 27: Kansas City's backups were less than impressive against the Seahawks last week. Luckily, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the starters are expected to see the field during some of Friday's game, so expect to see some deep shots as the Chiefs look to iron out some of the wrinkles in their offense. Kansas City's lack of secondary depth was evident during last Friday's loss, but with only a few roster spots up for grabs, the Chiefs' defensive backs will be playing at their best.
