The Bears are heading back to London in 2024.
The NFL announced early Thursday that the Bears will play one of their nine home games at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium next season.
“Every game the Chicago Bears play is rich in tradition, culture and passion. And every year, game after game, we look forward to welcoming fans to experience that richness,” Bears chairman George McCaskey said in a statement released by the Bears. “This year, we will take our storied franchise and tradition back to London and share internationally what our fans locally experience at every game. We are excited to join the many NFL teams who are expanding internationally to play a game in London during the 2024 season.”
It will be their fourth trip overseas. They played an exhibition game against the Cowboys in 1986. They played regular-season games in London in 2011 against the Buccaneers (a 24-18 victory) and in 2019 against the Raidres (a 24-21 loss.).
