The NFL moves the Week 5 kickoff time for the Bears-Packers game, switching it to a 1 p.m. ET start. CBS Sports reports the change removes the matchup from a prime afternoon window, reflecting the league’s flex scheduling approach.
Both outlets describe this as an NFL schedule adjustment announced ahead of the Week 5 games. While the exact timing change is consistent across reports, outlets emphasize different context: CBS Sports frames it as a bump out of a prime afternoon slot, while Yahoo Sports highlights the announced 1 p.m. ET kickoff time as the central update.
The change affects how and when fans will watch the game, but the reports do not indicate any changes to the teams involved or the overall matchup—only the listed kickoff time and related scheduling placement for Week 5.
