Polymarket Promotion Gives $25 Bonus for Bears-Patriots TNF
A promotional article explains how new Polymarket users can get a $25 bonus by entering code FOX for the Week 7 Thursday Night Football game between Chicago and New England. It notes that New England has won three straight and that Chicago beat Atlanta in Caleb Williams’ return from injury. The piece also lists signup steps and viewing details for the game at Soldier Field.
The promotion is tied to Week 7’s Thursday night matchup at Soldier Field, scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET on Oct. 22, 2026, and streamed on Amazon Prime Video. New England enters on a three-game run in which Drake Maye has thrown 10 touchdowns and one interception. Chicago beat Atlanta as Caleb Williams came back from injury.
Polymarket’s listed market gives New England a 41% chance and Chicago 59%. The Bears lead the league in rushing at 160.6 yards per game, while New England allows 18.8 points per game, fifth-best. Maye has 1,463 passing yards and 11 touchdowns; Williams has 712 passing yards and three touchdowns.
Promotions like this could affect casual NFL fans, new prediction-market users, media outlets, and advertisers. A $25 bonus may lower the barrier to trying Polymarket, potentially increasing engagement around Thursday games and expanding visibility for event-based trading. It may also expose less-experienced users to financial risk and encourage more betting-adjacent media partnerships, though the actual impact will depend on take-up, regulation, and how clearly terms are understood.
