THE Chicago Bears were back in Halas Hall for their seventh practice of the training camp on Thursday morning, where there were still a lot of notable titles and stars.
THE Bear The offensive of passing through a clinic in what the head coach Ben Johnson has previewed would be the longest practice to date, and it was certainly an intense session. The quarter-back Caleb Williams and the starting offensive prospered in the passage game, where he connected with the recruit Luther Burden III and the veteran Olamideaus throughout the training. Burden had a monster performance, connecting with three quarters, and it is clear that he hit his stride on his second day of full training.

Let’s recapture the day 8 of Bear Training camp:
-
Before Thursday’s training, head coach Ben Johnson put everything on the table. This eighth training would be the longest practice of the camp and the implications on the points of alignment and employment. Which makes even more impressive that the starting offense had its best day and was absolutely “pulling”Courney Croninand “put a show”, by Michal Dwojakin the passing game. Caleb quarters Williams and Tyson Badent each prospered with their respective units, where the recipient recruited Luther Burden III has proven to be their favorite objective. The only difficulties in the starting offensive occurred during the two-minute exercise when they released four-stroke, by Dan WiederThis included an instant pressure bag and Williams turning the ball on a fourth shub below, which was intercepted by Tyrique Stevenson. However, it was the best day for the offensive so far – and he arrived on the biggest scene so far.
-
Although there were early concerns about the difficulties of Caleb Williams to start the training camp (which was designed by coache staff), he has shown progress when he has set up “best practices” on the back. According to Larry Mayer, Williams had his best practices so far, which included impressive throws: “Perfect Touch Floating Long Pass to Luther Burden and Olamide Zaccheaus and Rifling Pricion in Dj Moore in the middle.” Greg Braggs Said Williams was “composed” and “pulsed the ball on the ground”. 79th and podcast Halas noted that the Bear brought heat to Williams, and he always had his best summer training. Every day, Williams seems to become more confident and comfortable in this offense.
-
It’s only two days, but it is clear that the Bears have something special in the recruit Luther Burden III, who has been the interpreter out of competition for two days. But the impression of Wednesday was only the aperitif of what was a monster practice for Burden, which succeeded with three -quarters (Caleb Williams, Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum), by 79th and podcast Halas. Before training on Thursday, head coach Ben Johnson delighted about Burden’s “game speed”, and this was exposed in this session. According to Ryan Baker, it is “even more impressive in person”. Burden made impressive captures with the first and second team offenses throughout the day, where Alex Shapiro Noted that “sometimes he opens, sometimes he attacks with solid coverage.” Mark Carman Said Burden “looked like the best receiver on the ground.”
-
Although it is the Luther Burden Show on Thursday and that Rome Odunze and DJ Moore made the heads turned, there was a star under the radar at Olamide Zaccheaus. According to Mark CarmanZaccheaus impressed throughout the training camp and Thursday saw “sharp roads” and “diving taken”. The best game of Zaccheaus day came when he transported a deep bullet in the quarter-Arrière Caleb Williams during the work of 11 against 11, by 79th and podcast Halas. The Bears receptor room is stacked with Moore, Odunze and Burden, but Zaccheaus is difficult for representatives given its playing capacity.
-
There is a competition that is preparing for the quarter aid between Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum, where the pair turned with the second team throughout the training camp. It was Bodent’s turn with the offensive of the second team on Thursday, and he presented a show – presenting his connection with the recipient recruited Luther Burden, which included consecutive Bogent to the burden, Dan Wieder. “The second included a net route of the recruit and a very nice touch on the launch of (BODDER).” @Jaychi_bears Adding this balent linked to a burden “several times today for the first stockings and deep bullets”. But Bodent’s strong show is nothing new. According to WiedererBodent “looks incredibly comfortable during the first two weeks of camp.”
-
The Bears departure offensive line was solid for most of the training camp, but Thursday’s practice was not their best performance. It should be noted that the departure of the right -of -right goalkeeper Jonah Jackson remains daily with a leg injury, so it was not the entire starting line. But according to 79th and podcast HalasThe offensive line had a “difficult day” with “false starts and sloppy shots”. The two -minute exercise at the end of the training was not pretty, and the offensive line played a role. According to the 79th and the Halas podcast, there was “a lot of upcoming pressure” which brought Caleb Williams to launch an interception at the Cornerback Tyrique Stevenson on the final game of a two -minute “trembling” exercise. Williams was released earlier in the series to put the offensive. Not the best day for the offensive line.
-
Before the training on Thursday, head coach Ben Johnson provided an update on the potential return of the corner half Jaylon Johnson. Johnson suffered a leg injury during training before the camp start, and we were told that a few weeks were missing. But now it seems that could be longer. Regarding the best of cases for the return of Jaylon Johnson, Ben Johnson said: “There is a scenario where he will be ready for week 1” against the Vikings of Minnesota, but also “it’s still early” in his rehabilitation process. It is not the most encouraging update, given that Johnson was originally supposed to miss a “a few weeks”, which indicated that he would be back to the camp at some point. But this last calendar means that it could miss more than two months and puts its status for the start of the regular Jeopardy season.
-
Wr Luther Burden III: It is officially the Luther Burden Week, because the wide recruit receiver continues to play after the game on the training field. Burden followed his best camp practice with an even better outing. He caught passes all over the field, whether in 1, 7 or 11 exercises against 1, 7 or 11. The burden was everywhere, catching short passes below and deep balls with tight blanket. As Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network, The burden caught five passes, including two deep. The more burden of representatives, the more comfortable it looks in the offensive and with its quarter. The leg injury that sidelined him for the first week no longer seems to be a concern, and the burden quickly integrates into the rotation of the receiver.
-
WR OLAMIDE ZACCHEAUS: While the burden has exploded lately, the veteran receiver Olamide Zaccheaus was a regular option for the Bears offensive throughout the camp. Zaccheaus always seems to be in the right place and was a nice safety blanket during the passes. However, he still has a game potential. One of the best throws that Williams made on Thursday was a rush where he found Zaccheaus Grand Open. The veteran was able to hurry in the goals for the scoring. It was one of the largest camp parts for Zaccheaus, and he has been presenting himself every day since the start of practices.
-
QB Caleb Williams: Williams is starting to chain solid practices, and by most accounts, he had his best camp on Thursday. The old overall choice n ° 1 spread the balloon everywhere, finding many different receivers to keep the workouts alive. Of course, Burden and Zaccheaus were strongly involved, but Williams also had good connections with Moore, Odunze, Cole Kmet and Miles Boykin. Like Greg Braggs Jr. de Chgo les states, the quarter-tree was composed. It was not perfect, because the two -minute offensive could have been better, but Williams regularly improved under Johnson this camp after a trembling start.
-
To go up in sweat: The offensive was the story of a large part of Thursday’s practice, but the defense still had its moments to shine. Namely, it is mounting sweatshirt that crosses the offensive line to exert pressure on the quarter. Sweat had a few cases where he beat the blocker to enter the rear field and hit a bag towards the end of the training. With the ones on, defensive line players can get more work and sweat does exactly this against an improved offensive line.
Injury updates
The Bears were quite good health at this stage of the training camp, outside Jaylon Johnson (who was injured before the camp start). But there was an injury during Thursday training that could have implications. According to Courney CroninLong Vivaneau Scott Daly was brought back to the locker room near the end of the training, indicating that he could have an injury. It is certainly worrying for the long departure alive, but it should be noted that they have not drafted the recruit Luke Elkin on the list (which broke the ball on the Tory Taylor at the Iowa). And Patrick Scales, the longtime bettor of the Bears, remains a free agent. In case of health, it could be an option if Daly’s injury is serious.
