Bears training camp observations: Another practice, another injury
· Yahoo Sports
The Chicago Bears were back on the practice field at Halas Hall on Sunday for their 10th practice of training camp, which was delayed by weather before being moved indoors.
The Bears held a roughly two-hour practice inside the Walter Payton Center, and it didn't go without another notable injury. Rookie wide receiver Zavion Thomas limped off the field after suffering an apparent leg injury. It was an overall mixed bag for the offense, which saw standout performances from quarterback Tyson Bagent and receivers Jahdae Walker and Kaden Davis. There were also some notable position battle updates at left tackle, nickel cornerback and safety amid injuries.

#Bears practice in the books. Mixed day for the offense overall. Big play ended practice as Tyson Bagent hit Kaden Davis for a long touchdown. The WR made a nice catch in coverage. Good ball.

1/4
Zavion Thomas left practice early with apparent knee injury
Another day, another notable injury as Zavion Thomas left practice early after going down on the Walter Payton Center turf. Briefly grabbed his knee and then walked off with a slight limp. #Bears

D'Andre Swift was a standout
Fumble aside, I thought D’Andre Swift was a great today.
— Chris Kwiecinski (@OchoK_) August 9, 2026
The situation today was the Bears’ O was up and needed a 2-min offense to win.
Swift gained 28 yards on 3 carries to win the drill. He was shifty with burst, and had big gains in nearly every team period.
3/4
Tyson Bagent had a day
#Bears practice that was just short of 2 hours and was moved indoors has wrapped up. Lots going on. Tyson Bagent was cooking at the end in full team drills.

That’s it for Bears’ indoor practice.

• Xavier Woods started at safety next to Dillon Thieneman
• Kiran Amegadjie got the first reps at LT
• No Sweat, Lewis, Burden, Braxton Jones, Jaylon Jones, D’Marco Jackson, Terell Smith
• Tyson Bagent to Kaden Davis 34-yd TD to end it.

Kaden Davis continues to be a standout
Extra point: Kaden Davis is going to make decisions tough at Halas Hall.
— Chris Kwiecinski (@OchoK_) August 9, 2026
He had his great TD where he got the corner and outraced two DBs for a score and ended practice catching a bomb from Bagent for another TD.
Davis also got some snaps for the first team offense.
Jahdae Walker saw time with first-team offense
Bears rookie 3rd-round pick Zavion Thomas exited practice early after getting knocked down during 7-on-7. He’s a guy you’d want to see in the preseason opener Saturday.

Luther Burden did not practice today. Bears WR depth being tested. Jahdae Walker got lots of run with the 1s.
