The Chicago Bears took on the Miami Dolphins in their preseason opener Sunday at Soldier Field, which resulted in a 24-24 tie (with no overtime in the preseason). This came after an intense joint practice on Friday, where the starters went head-to-head.

The Chicago Bears' first preseason game of 2025 ended in a tie, but there were still plenty of takeaways from the contest.
