The Chicago Bears were back at Halas Hall for their sixth practice of training camp on Tuesday, where they conducted their second straight padded practice.
The Bears kicked things up a notch on Day 6, where they had several live periods. There was plenty of physicality and intensity on display, which even led to the first scuffle of training camp between two rookies. Overall, it was a win for the defense and the offense had its share of struggles. There was some good injury news as running back Kyle Monangai returned to team drills as he overcomes a soft tissue injury. There were also some notable developments in several position battles.
Let’s recap Day 6 of Bears training camp:

Injury updates
Running back Kyle Monangai was in pads once again for the second consecutive day, but this time he participated in team drills, which is an encouraging sign as he returns from a soft tissue injury. Cornerbacks Terell Smith and KC Eziomume were both not spotted at practice, as well as safety Coby Bryant, who suffered a knee injury during Monday’s practice that’s expected to sideline him for 8-10 weeks.
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.
