The Chicago Bears were back at Halas Hall for their fourth practice of training camp on Friday. Despite a weather delay that forced it to be a closed practice, the Bears were able to get some work done in the rain.
While the offense got off to an impressive start to training camp, it was the defense’s turn to shine on Saturday, aided a little by the weather conditions. Quarterback Caleb Williams and the offense struggled to get into a rhythm, and the secondary was finally able to best what’s been a dominant passing game. There were also some updates in position battles at left tackle and nickel cornerback in the final practice of this first week before the pads come on Monday.
Let’s recap Day 4 of Bears training camp:

Injury updates
The only notable absence from Saturday’s practice was running back Kyle Monangai, who was not spotted on the field for the third straight day. It’s worth noting that linebacker Jack Sanborn did exit practice early, but the reason is unknown. The players previously announced on the non-football injury and physically unable to perform lists were sidelined: linebacker T.J. Edwards, cornerback Kyler Gordon, offensive tackle Ozzy Trapilo, safety Elijah Hicks, linebackers Keyshaun Elliott and Noah Sewell and defensive end Shemar Turner.
