A few things to keep on the radar as Bears camp moves on …
— Even in 7-on-7 work, there are too many moments where the ball isn’t coming out from Caleb Williams fast enough. Sometimes not at all. — Kyler Gordon and Jaquan Brisker remain out, among the sidelined/injured players.…
– Caleb Williams hit D'Andre Swift in the flat on the right for a short gain. – Williams didn't find anyone open initially, so he rolled right and tried to fit a pass to Khalil Herbert. The ball fell incomplete. – Jaylon Johnson broke up a pass…
Caleb Williams just connected with Keenan Allen on a back shoulder throw near the right sideline. Bears coach Jon Hoke wanted an OPI on the play, but he didn't get the call.
First full team session – PA to DJ was bit by the line but recovered by the LBs, no one was open – Caleb went through reads to hit DeAndre swift on a curl – Gervon Dexter came up grabbing leg but stayed on to play next play. On the sideline now but not with trainers. Appears ok
