NFL preseason schedule Week 2: TV coverage, channels, scores for every football game today
Week 2 of the NFL preseason, much like one more game before the actual start of the season, won’t mean much in the long run in 2022.
But that won’t stop fans from watching as their teams continue to prepare for the season proper – whether it’s reviewing highly drafted prospects, position battles, or players who have appeared out of nowhere to impress their teammates .
The action begins Thursday when the Bears take on the Seahawks. The ongoing quarterback fight between Geno Smith and Drew Lock will be something to watch. Check out all the action Chicago QB Justin Fields is getting as a sophomore after a battle-filled rookie season.
This week’s other nationally televised games are Ravens at Cardinals and Falcons at Jets. A handful of games will be broadcast on the NFL Network.
