The Chicago Bears closed out the NFL preseason with a 29–27 win over the Kansas City Chiefs at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on Friday night, overcoming a 17-point second-half deficit. The result left Kansas City winless in exhibition play for the second consecutive year. No. 2 overall draft pick Caleb Williams completed 11 of 15 passes for 113 yards and a touchdown in his final tune-up before the regular season. Despite the late comeback, first-year head coach Ben Johnson labelled the opening half "sloppy," citing a botched jet-sweep hand-off, penalties and a drive-killing sack as areas that "have to get better in a hurry." Kansas City unexpectedly kept its starters on the field deep into the second quarter. Patrick Mahomes directed two scoring drives but could not prevent the Chiefs from finishing the preseason 0–3, a skid that has not dented bookmakers’ confidence; Kansas City still holds the fourth-shortest Super Bowl odds at +750, according to betting data circulated Friday night. Both clubs now turn to Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline, when rosters must be trimmed to the regular-season limit of 53 players. Chicago opens against Minnesota on Sept. 8, while Kansas City hosts the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 5.
