One Bears veteran invitee closed out the first rookie minicamp practice with a catch on a deep ball but the rookies had center stage most of the day.

Not every impressive rookie at Chicago's rookie minicamp has draft pedigree and coach Ben Johnson cited three he noticed even before practices began.

Montez Sweat, Grady Jarrett, Gervon Dexter, and Austin Booker can look much different with a little assistance, but not from the place most fans expect.

The Bears hold on-field work at rookie minicamp Friday and Saturday with four main functions in mind, preserving their health being Job One.

Sure, the Bears drafted Malik Muhammad and Tyrique Stevenson makes mistakes, but there is another Chicago cornerback whose record also deserves scrutiny.

A new personnel group at receiver for the Chicago Bears means a change in targeting for their QB, but it might be a less significant change than some imagine.

The Bears defense last year succeeded because of takeaways despite yielding chunks of yardage, and there's every reason to believe they continue doing this.

Beating up the Bears' offseason defensive personnel approach fails to take into account changes and what was accomplished in their coordinator's first year.
