Fox
Fox has been the home for most Bears games since the network began airing the NFL’s NFC package in 1994. But Fox 32 Chicago wants that relationship to be deeper.
The NFL mandates that games broadcast on cable or a streaming service be available over the air in the participating teams’ local markets. Last season, Fox 32 won the bidding for the Bears’ game in London that aired on NFL Network.
This season, Fox 32 made a deal with Amazon to carry Prime Video’s broadcast of the Bears-Eagles game on Black Friday. The deal included a rider that said if Prime ended up with a Bears game in the playoffs, Fox 32 would carry it for a fee.
