NFL preseason: Field for one NFL stadium criticized for embarrassing conditions
By Paul Harvey
Published:
NFL preseason action is back with a number of teams hitting the field on Saturday. Unfortunately, two teams in Week 1 will battle it out on a field that is in ugly shape, to say the least.
One of the first games on Saturday is between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Unfortunately, the playing conditions in rough shape.
Jason Lieser with the Chicago Sun-Times shared photos of the playing surface, and the conditions are deplorable. Instead of an immaculate green canvas, brown spots and multiple scuffs and divots can be seen.

Some field conditions can worsen with time, but this is particularly bad for an NFL team hitting the field for the first preseason game of the year. Hopefully, players are able to stay healthy without any issues.
