While many professional sports leagues have seen their seasons delayed by the coronavirus pandemic, the NFL has benefited from a spring-time offseason, where they’ve been able to conduct things like free agency and the 2020 NFL Draft without interruption.
The NFL remains adamant that the 2020 season will start on-time, although there are certain to be some big changes. Typically, the league releases the 2020 schedule prior to the NFL Draft, but things haven’t been typical this offseason.
For now, the season will go on as schedule. And we now know that the NFL will release the 2020 schedule on Thursday at 7 p.m. CT.
While we don’t yet know when the Bears will be playing specific opponents, we do know who their opponents are for next season and where the games will be played.

| New Orleans Saints | Jacksonville Jaguars |
| New York Giants | Los Angeles Rams |
