Final score: Chiefs lose to Bears 34-21 in preseason finale at Arrowhead Stadium

The Kansas City Chiefs lost in their preseason finale against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday night.

The game’s final score was 34-21 in Chicago’s favor and left Kansas City’s preseason record at 0-3.

Though several players popped for the Chiefs in the loss, turnovers and poor defensive play proved too much for Kansas City to overcome, and ultimately doomed the defending champions to finish their exhibition schedule without a win.

Rookie running back Carson Steele was among the Chiefs’ most effective players against the Bears, ending the game with four rushes for 50 yards and a touchdown to cap off his exceptional preseason.

Now that the preseason has run its course, head coach Andy Reid and general manager Brett Veach will have to make some difficult decisions to cut down Kansas City’s roster down to 53 players and a 16-man practice squad next week.

Stay tuned to Chiefs Wire over the next few weeks to see which players stick around in Kansas City for the 2024 regular season.
