Teven Jenkins seems to have some value in the market as some teams have called to discus him, according to NFL Network.

After a few days learning the playbook and working on their conditioning, veteran offensive linemen Riley Reiff and Michael Schofield began working for a few plays with starters and it only figures to increase from here on out.

With pads on and actual hitting coming this week, the place where this Chicago Bears offense and quarterback Justin Fields are at will become far more apparent than in the non-contact work of offseason and the first week of training camp.

Lucas Patricks hand injury led the Chicago Bears to turn to their sixth-round rookie from University of Illinois, Doug Kramer rather than 2021 starter Sam Mustipher.

With just one full practice in the books, the Bears lost their starting center to injury as Lucas Patrick left the field Thursday, and they also were without Teven Jenkins.

Lucas Patrick leaving with what is being reported as a thumb injury left rookie Doug Kramer taking first-team reps at center.

It's just one practice, but the early deployment of the new guys brings forth a sign of things to come.

Projecting the 53-man roster for the Bears is more difficult in this rebuilding year with the talent level so even throughout the roster.
