Texans-Bears Hall of Fame Game ends in third quarter due to inclement weather #nfl #HOFGame
The 2024 Pro Football Hall of Fame Game between the Houston Texans and Chicago Bears ended with 3:31 remaining in the third quarter Thursday night due to inclement weather. The Bears defeated the Texans, 21-17.
"The NFL made the right move with lightning in the area," Bears head coach Matt Eberflus said of the decision to end the game. "That was good to see."
With a thunderstorm raining down on Tom Benson Stadium and lightning in the distance, the game was delayed.
Players were sent away from the field and fans were instructed to leave their seats to seek shelter.
Following a delay of more than 30 minutes, the contest was officially called.
"They knew the weather was coming in and told us before the game," Eberflus said. "They had a plan in place to watch it because you never know how bad it's going to be in terms of the lightning and the severity of it. It was severe enough that they called it. They made a good call."
Among the highlights of the game were Bears receiver Collin Johnson catching two touchdowns from quarterback Brett Rypien, and Texans backup Davis Mills leading offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik's squad early in the game.
