The Chicago Bears held a low-intensity, non-padded practice Tuesday morning at Halas Hall, working back into the groove of training camp as they turn their attention to Saturday’s preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans at Soldier Field.
Here’s the rundown of all that happened on the field Tuesday as well as what was said during interviews at Halas Hall.

Admittedly, it was a slow morning in Lake Forest. That opened the door for an end-of-practice, 11-on-11 session to qualify as one of the day’s bigger developments.
In an end-of-game, two-minute situation, the first-team offense took possession at midfield with 55 seconds remaining, needing a field goal to win.
The result: Quarterback Justin Fields and Co. got it done, gaining 18 yards in seven plays to set up a 50-yard Cairo Santos kick as time expired.
The offense showed encouraging resilience in overcoming an offensive pass interference penalty against tight end Cole Kmet on the first snap and, later, a 9-yard sack by Rasheem Green.
Fields completed three passes, including a brilliant 17-yard dart over the middle to rookie Tyler Scott to convert on third-and-17 with 14 seconds remaining. His final completion was an 8-yarder to DJ Moore inbounds with no timeouts. Fields hurried the offense to the line of scrimmage and clocked the football with 0.6 seconds remaining.
“That’s what it’s all about,” Kmet said. “That’s the difference in the NFL. You have to be able to execute in those moments.”

Special teams coordinator Richard Hightower was most pleased with how organized the coaching staff was during that sequence. Coach Matt Eberflus, offensive coordinator Luke Getsy, director of research and analysis Harry Fried and Hightower all communicated as the series evolved.
“Flus is a phenomenal and outstanding communicator on that headset,” Hightower said. “He’s already talking about that moment before the drive starts. We always feel prepared.”

Fields’ successful two-minute drive near the end of practice came shortly after the first-unit offense failed to pick up a first down on two 11-on-11 possessions that started inside the 5-yard line.
On the first one, Fields overthrew Chase Claypool on a third-and-6 deep shot up the right sideline with Claypool also flagged for offensive pass interference. The second possession sputtered after Fields was inaccurate with a catch-and-throw fastball to Darnell Mooney to his left, the kind of quick, simple play he has to master this season.
Fields also was intercepted in 11-on-11 work when he threw deep to Mooney down the left sideline. Rookie Tyrique Stevenson reacted perfectly in coverage and made a leaping pick.
As has been the case for most of camp, Fields and Moore continued to showcase their chemistry during team drills, most notably on back-to-back completions for 25 and 17 yards. On the first, Moore beat rookie Macon Clark off the snap and Fields dropped a pretty touch pass into Moore’s hands on the left sideline.
Rookie defensive tackle Gervon Dexter continues to impress coaches with his raw strength, which allows him to make an impact even when he isn’t as low as he should be.
But, Eberflus said, “if he wants to be elite, he’s going to have to learn how to get off (the ball) consistently and keep his pads down as he does. He’s starting to do that. He’s looking better and better every single day.”

The Bears drafted Dexter with the No. 53 pick and believe his rare combination of size and athleticism gives him a chance to be a long-term starter. But there is a grind to understanding the demands of the NFL, and the Bears will continue to push Dexter to play with better pad level and get off the ball quicker.
“Just key the ball,” Dexter said. “There are no real tricks to it. (It’s just) getting in a stance, getting down and getting off the ball. … Staying consistent is something you have to do to play in this league and be dominant. There are good players. But those great players are the ones that do it all the time.”
Dexter’s next test comes Saturday in his preseason debut.
“I’m ready to compete,” he said. “I’m ready to showcase some of those things.”
Linebacker T.J. Edwards has been asked throughout camp whether comparisons of Fields to Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts have merit. Edwards was Hurts’ teammate for three seasons, including last year when Hurts finished second in MVP voting and led the Eagles to the Super Bowl.

“It’s hard to say,” Edwards said. “They’re different in some ways. But the one thing that is similar is their work ethic. … That was the progression I saw with Jalen. It was just his confidence in what he was doing from Year 2 to Year 3.
“And you see the same thing with Justin. He’s getting the ball out fast. He’s making a lot of big throws. (He’s) making the right decisions and making us work extremely hard on defense.”

On the first depth chart of the preseason, Velus Jones is listed as the top kick returner and punt returner. Hightower lauded Jones’ growth in tracking punts.
“I’ve seen him getting to the spot quicker and more efficiently than I’ve ever seen him do it,” Hightower said. “And he just looks more relaxed when the ball is coming down.”
Jones and the other punt returners have been working hard on how to judge punts off the punter’s foot while also reading the nose of the football as it reaches its apex.
Special teams assistant Omar Young, wide receivers coach Tyke Tolbert and even Eberflus have been engaged in teaching that skill.
“It takes a village to raise a child,” Hightower said.
The Bears added linebacker Barrington Wade and tight end Lachlan Pitts to their 90-man roster and released kicker Andre Szmyt and tight end Jake Tonges. Wade played at Niles North before going to Iowa.
In injury news, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, defensive end DeMarcus Walker and defensive backs Jaquan Brisker and Kyler Gordon remained out. Safety Eddie Jackson also was absent for personal reasons.
Others who did not participate were wide receivers Dante Pettis and Joe Reed, cornerback Terell Smith, offensive lineman Lucas Patrick and running back Roschon Johnson.
Right guard Nate Davis returned after missing the previous five practices. Linebacker Jack Sanborn also was back.
