Titans vs Bears live stream: How to watch NFL online and on TV from anywhere, odds and inactives

Today's Titans vs Bears live stream marks the much-anticipated NFL debut of Caleb Williams, the No.1 overall pick in the 2024 Draft . Chicago's new leading man lived up to the hype in preseason, but Soldier Field has a predilection for burying talent — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

The Titans vs Bears live stream takes place today (Sunday, September 8).

Getting carried away is the last activity any Bears fan should indulge in, but in this case it's difficult to resist. Being named one of the franchise's eight captains for the season shows how much of an impression Williams has made already. Ally that with the quality of his wide receiver room, and it's little wonder there's such a buzz in the air.

No.9 pick Rome Odunze will be learning from none other than DJ Moore and Keenan Allen, both of whom are coming off +1,200-yard seasons. Having transformed the Bears' defence last term, imagine what Montez Sweat's impact could be after a full preseason.

It's the start of a new era for the Titans, who parted ways with Derrick Henry and Mike Vrabel in the offseason, replacing them with Tony Pollard and rookie head coach Brian Callahan. On the face of it, this is likely to be a rebuilding season, although the acquisitions of cornerback L'Jarius Sneed and receiver Calvin Ridley show that they mean business from the off.

Titans inactives: S Jamal Adams, LB Otis Reese, OL John Ojukuwu, TE David Martin-Robinson, TE Thomas Odukoya, LB Ali Gaye
