Raiders will return to London in 2019 to face Bears
The Raiders will play the Bears - and Khalil Mack - in London next season, the NFL announced Monday.
It marks the Raiders’ second consecutive year playing a “home” game in London and their fourth straight season with an international game. They lost 27-3 to the Seahawks in 2018 at Wembley Stadium.
The date and venue of the 2019 game has yet to be determined.
It will be the Raiders’ first time opposing Mack - the All-Pro edge rusher and former first-round pick whom Oakland traded to the Bears on Sept. 1. As part of the deal the Raiders received the Bears’ first-round pick in 2019, which slots in as 24th overall after Mack helped to lead Chicago to the playoffs.
