Hello, Caleb Williams: NFL Network’s live preseason schedule includes 3 Bears games

When six quarterbacks were selected with the first 12 picks of the NFL Draft, it made the league’s decisions on preseason programming pretty easy.

The NFL Network announced its 21 preseason games that will be televised live this August, and it’s heavy on rookie quarterbacks. In particular, the league is obviously excited to promote Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, the No. 1 overall pick of the draft.

Among the 21 games to be shown on NFL Network, three Bears preseason games will be broadcast nationally. The league likes its star quarterbacks, and it’s hoping this rookie class adds to the depth at the position around the league.

We’ll get our first look in the preseason.
