Bears quarterback Justin Fields on the Bears’ offense: “I think we’re in a good spot right now.”

Tracking quarterback Justin Fields during Bears training-camp practices:

In his first day in pads since the defense dominated practice Wednesday, Justin Fields responded with an efficient, low-risk performance that lacked splash plays. A lot of short completions, but no highlight plays to DJ Moore.

Fields’ day got off with a bang when he opened team drills with a completion to Chase Claypool on a crossing route against rookie Terell Smith that caused another skirmish when safety Eddie Jackson hit Claypool at the end of the play — perhaps after the play.
