The only preseason game whose exact date and kickoff time is presently known is the game against Buffalo in Week 3 on Sunday, Aug. 26. The 4 p.m. game will be nationally televised by FOX. The Bengals lead the Bills 6-5 in preseason. The teams last met in preseason in 2010, with the Bills winning 35-20 in Buffalo.

Dates and kickoff times for the other three games are to be announced later this month, and those games will be on the Bengals Preseason TV Network.
