Packers make important announcement about Bears game

Originally posted on WI Sports Heroics | By Robin M Adams | Last updated Dec 3, 2025 7:26 AM ET

A lot of eyes will be on this coming Sunday’s NFC North rivalry matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears at Lambeau Field.

This Week 14 meeting is undeniably compelling for a number of reasons. For one, the winner of this matchup will have the top spot in the division’s standings through 14 weeks. Green Bay has an 8-3-1 record going into the contest, while Chicago is 9-3. Both teams are also on a roll, as the Bears and the Packers are on five-game and three-game winning streaks, respectively.

That meeting initially did not have a definite schedule, but it does now.

Via Green Bay’s official website:

GREEN BAY – The Packers will play the Chicago Bears in primetime on Saturday, Dec. 20, at Soldier Field, the NFL announced on Tuesday.

The Week 16 game will be televised on FOX at 7:20 p.m. CT following the Philadelphia Eagles at Washington Commanders game at 4 p.m.
