Sunday Night Football: How to Watch the Chicago Bears vs. Los Angeles Chargers Game, Time, Live Stream

After an action-packed lineup of football games today, Sunday Night Football returns for Week 8 of the 2023 NFL season. The Los Angeles Chargers host the Chicago Bears at SoFi Stadium tonight.

With a 30-12 defeat of the Las Vegas Raiders last week, the Bears now have a chance to win back-to-back games for the first time in two seasons. The undrafted rookie quarterback, Tyson Bagent, made his first start for Chicago and is likely to start again. Meanwhile, Los Angeles is 2-4 and looking to get its season back on track after two straight losses. However, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is currently facing difficulties due to a broken finger, which could be affecting his performance.

Here is everything to know about how to watch tonight’s Chicago Bears vs. Los Angeles Chargers game live.
