A year ago today the Bears were in full training camp mode in Bourbonnais — far along enough for critics to wonder if Mitch Trubisky and the offense were that bad or Khalil Mack and the defense were that good. And Matt Nagy was in full Nagy mode — throwing touchdown passes to Javon Wims and Anthony Miller in a light moment at the end of one drill.
In the first week of August this season, with the restrictions of the COVID-19 quarantine impacting the NFL schedule, the Bears are still a week away from a formal practice.
