Live updates from first padded practice of Chicago Bears training camp

[ASFN Admin]

The Chicago Bears are back on the practice field at Halas Hall on Monday for their fifth training camp practice of the summer, where second-year head coach Ben Johnson is looking to position his team for repeat success in 2026.

With media and select fans in attendance, there’s plenty to keep an eye on during Monday's practice, which marks the first padded workout of the summer.

Quarterback Caleb Williams is entering his third season with high expectations after a breakout sophomore campaign. He'll lead what was one of the NFL's best offenses from a season ago, where weapons Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, Colston Loveland and Zavion Thomas present unlimited opportunities in the passing game. There are also a number of position battles underway, including at nickel cornerback, left tackle and long snapper.


Here are some live updates from those in attendance at Day 5 of Bears training camp:
