The Chicago Bears reported to training camp in Bourbonnais, Illinois, on Wednesday afternoon, and the team held its first practice Thursday morning.
Even though the Bears officially reported on Wednesday, a few players arrived early on Tuesday.
"I got here [Tuesday] night," said guard Kyle Long, per Larry Mayer of ChicagoBears.com. "A few of us caravanned down here, just waiting on guys. It's great to see everybody. It's like the first day of school. I was in the training room at 8 a.m. and I didn't have to be there until noon. I was just messing with everybody.
