CINCINNATI -- A day ahead of the NFL unveiling the full regular-season slate, the Cincinnati Bengals announced they had finalized their preseason schedule.

Previously only two of the Bengals' preseason games had set dates and kickoff times -- the Week 3 game at Arizona and the Week 4 game at home versus Indianapolis.

Before taking on the Cardinals and Colts, the Bengals will travel to Kansas City for an 8 p.m. ET tilt in their Aug. 7 preseason opener. The Bengals are next in action on Saturday, Aug. 16, when they host the Jets at 7 p.m. ET in the Week 2 preseason game.

As previously announced, they then head to Arizona on Aug. 24 for a Sunday night game against former Bengal Carson Palmer and the Cardinals. That game will be broadcast nationally by NBC, beginning at 8 p.m. ET. They end the preseason four days later with the Aug. 28 contest at Paul Brown Stadium against the Colts. Kickoff for that game is set for 7 p.m. ET.

Here's that rundown once more:

Thursday, Aug. 7: at Kansas City, 8 p.m. ET

Saturday, Aug. 16: vs. New York Jets, 7 p.m. ET

Sunday, Aug. 24: at Arizona, 8 p.m. ET (NBC)

Thursday, Aug. 28: vs. Indianapolis, 7 p.m. ET

Oh, and again, the NFL regular-season schedule will be announced at 8 p.m. Wednesday. Prepare yourselves.
