Play of the day from Bears practice No. 2: Caleb Williams hitting Kalif Raymond with a deep ball for a 54-yard touchdown.

Bears OC Press Taylor on Ben Johnson: "When he steps on the field, there's a certain look in his eyes, and it's kind of like, all right. And you get excited on our side because we have Ben. Like that's part of the process of, why do you think you're going to win? We have Ben."

Here's @danwiederer.bsky.social from Day 1 of Bears camp practices, on Caleb Williams, Coby Bryant and Dennis Allen

Bears defensive coordinator Dennis Allen: "It's hard to evaluate a lot of stuff when you're practicing in underwear."

Ben Johnson: “We are in a race right now to develop the same chemistry we had a year ago. I think that was one of the things that was our secret sauce: guys playing for each other. We had a really close-knit group.” Story from Day 1 of camp by @danwiederer.bsky.social

Five takeaways from Halas Hall… • A Kyler Gordon update, of sorts • Darnell Wright extension coming soon? • Another LT battle Plus other injury updates, more praise for Luther Burden and more (free to read)

The Bears placed DE Montez Sweat on the non-football illness list. He's expected back within a few days. S Elijah Hicks is being placed on the PUP list. Ryan Poles mentioned Hicks is dealing with shin discomfort.

Bears head coach Ben Johnson on training camp: "This is our chance to forge our identity. ... It's a chance for us to create a new chapter of Chicago Bears football."

Bears GM Ryan Poles on RT Darnell Wright and trying to get an extension done — seems like a "deadline" would be the start of the season. "When it's time to go play football, we go play football. He's a guy we want here for a while."

Bears GM Ryan Poles offers some injury updates: TJ Edwards - right calf "We don't see that as anything major." Keyshaun Elliott - back discomfort Kyler Gordon - calf "He was here all offseason training." Elijah Hicks - shin

3 games are determined by standings. The intra-conference crossover game and the two divisions the team isn’t playing. The Bears go 8 years between playing at an AFC stadium (unless that team is the 17th game crossover) and up to 6 years in the NFC.
