Jenkins and couple others held out of first day at training camp. Should I be worrie I'm. sorry got posted in wrong thread. Expand Looks like Jackson was “injured” while not on the job. Ifedi has a hip flexor issue - which could translate into a long term problem. And Newsome broke his collar bone back during the rookie training camp(?) and must not be back to fill form yet. Cohen is ‘slow healing’ from his torn ACL he got at the beginning of last season. Think that one surprised many here when it was announced a few weeks ago. There are smarter ones here that can address these in more detail but here’s where I got some of the updates. https://bearswire.usatoday.com/2021/07/28/chicago-bears-news-eddie-jackson-nfi-germain-ifedi-pup-training-camp/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted July 29, 2021 Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 Some more on this. Jackson has a hamstring issue. Jenkins ‘back tightness’. And Robert Quinn…back issues (again). Ugh… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskan Grizzly Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Been hearing good things from camp about Dalton. Some are saying his ‘veteran’ status is showing. But they’re also saying as the days progress so does Fields. This video shows some good and one ‘bad’ caused by Dalton (oops). Also good to see Quinn out there twisting and turning despite his back bothering him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Little tweaks dont bother me, always happens, its the major injuries that has a negative effect. Example Cohen last year. Jenkins having back tightness and not practicing, is just the Bears being overly cautious because of their lack of depth on the LT spot. I still believe If not Wilkerson , Bars still could play decent LT if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 Marquin Chirstian has been running with the #1s at the nickel spot. They are trying out everyone, so I am sure someone will step up and get the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 Vildor is also getting snaps across from Johnson. Nichols has been dominant and Quinn is getting to the QB. Those are good signs. This defense is going to be legit. For the offense, I don't think we have had a QB room this good ever. Foles is QB3 and could start on some teams. Dalton looks like the solid vet and Fields is turning heads while still learning. A great problem to have. My hope is they can flip Foles to NYJ or now IND for a mid-round pick and clear some cap space. Monty and Arob are faster, and Mooney, Byrd, and Goodwin are smoking fast. Fields is loving his TEs. Kmet and James making a lot of plays. This offense is probably the best we have had since Marshall, Jeffery, Forte, Bennett. I know the O-Line is a concern, but this offense is going to score more and the defense is going to allow less. I a figure a 3 point swing overall. That is probably good for 2-3 wins. So 10-11 wins seems like the target. Vegas at 7.5 seems like some easy money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like a diamond in the rough to me. Only downside I saw is his size, or lack thereof. Of course Tim Jennings wasn’t all that big and he did pretty good for the Bears.

Stinger226 Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 I don't think any of the covid stuff is long term. They either tested positive or was around someone that did. In 2 days they retest them. The rapid test isn't very reliable and they get a lot of false positives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted August 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 Beating the dead horse again. Sorry to horse lovers. We don't have anyone who has played LT in an NFL game on the roster. Even if everyone gets healthy we still won't. Depth is great at all positions. Where is it at LT? Name anyone on the roster who we should be looking forward to playing the position other than Jenkins. And he has never taken a snap at LT in the NFL.
