2025 NFL schedule release: Bears to face Eagles in Black Friday game on Prime Video

With turkey in the rearview mirror, the Bears will have to bring a big appetite to Philadelphia on Black Friday.

The Eagles will host Chicago on Friday, Nov. 28 at 3 p.m. ET on Prime Video, the NFL announced Monday.

Chicago embarks on the start of the Ben Johnson era with high hopes for what he may be able to accomplish with former No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams, and by the time Thanksgiving arrives, they should have a decent understanding of how their first season of this era will unfold. There's no better time for a significant test in the form of a road date with the defending Super Bowl champions than just days before December, perhaps a point at which the Bears are attempting to make a playoff push -- or salvage the remainder of their first season under their new coach.

Philadelphia is facing a gauntlet of a 2025 schedule which includes 11 games versus 2024 playoff teams and dates against seven of the top 10 scoring offenses and six of the top seven scoring defenses. Chicago doesn't land in any of the aforementioned categories but could present the Eagles with quite a challenge if Johnson can turn the Bears around quickly.

Bears-Eagles will be the third Black Friday game played to the Prime Video audience since they began the now-annual tradition in 2023. It will be the first appearance in the window for either team.

The NFL will unveil the entire 2025 schedule at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday on NFL Network, NFL.com, the NFL app and NFL+.
