Saturday Sports Update
Top: The Buffalo Bills are in Chicago today for their second game of the 2021 NFL preseason. Mitchell Trubisky (left), who directed the team's first two offensive series against the Detroit Lions last week, will get the start again today and will likely see more playing time against his former team. Meanwhile, Josh Allen (right) and a number of other starters will not see any time on the field, as the team plans to further evaluate many players who got to see their first game action last week. Tune in to WDOE (94.9 FM/101.5 FM/1410 AM) for today's contest between the Bills and the Chicago Bears, with kickoff at 1:00 PM! Photos by the Buffalo Bills
