The Chicago Bears returned to the practice field for their first open practice of training camp on Thursday, which marked the first open workout of camp.
There was plenty to learn from the media and fans in attendance, who shared some highlights and videos from the second practice. That included rookie wideout Tyler Scott showing off his impressive speed, as well as quarterback Justin Fields and receiver DJ Moore continuing to steal the show this summer.
Here’s a quick roundup of the highlights and notes from Day 2 of Bears training camp:
Justin Fields to DJ Moore continue to steal the show
The Justin Fields, DJ Moore continued to be a thing on Day 2 of Bears camp.
Two plays in particular stand out from 7s.
1) Fields lofted ball over LBs & Moore made leaping grab over the middle
2) Moore streaked down the sideline & Fields put it in small window to hit in stride

Man, when Justin Fields needs a play to be made, he is going to go to DJ Moore.
Fields just connected with Moore, AGAIN, on the right side.

Look for another Justin Fields-deep-to-DJ Moore highlight from the Bears’ social media team today. Pretty pass.

Tyler Scott impressing with speed
Rookie WR Tyler Scott’s speed and separation is another highlight so far today in Bears camp. I’d like to see him against the best DBs. But you can see the wheels and deep ball ability.
— Adam Jahns (@adamjahns) July 27, 2023
Seeing some of the straight line speed and explosiveness out of WR Tyler Scott in one on one drills. Justin Fields hit him with a deep ball and Scott had big separation on Michael Ojemudia, a third year DB out of Iowa.
— Mark Grote (@markgrotesports) July 27, 2023
Tyler Scott has been getting behind some DBs today. Scott created great separation from the DB but the ball took him out of bounds. PJ Walker with the pass.
— Nicholas Moreano (@NicholasMoreano) July 27, 2023
Tyler Scott is FAST. Just absolutely torched one of the backup CB’s (Michael Ojemudia)
Crazy amount of separation there

DJ Moore is the real deal
DJ Moore is the real deal. Another nice catch in team for him. Great route discipline. Very sudden. #DaBears #Bears #ChicagoBears

The Justin Fields to DJ Moore connection again. Fields delivered a strike and Moore made a nice play. Rookie Tyrique Stevenson was in coverage. Excellent route by Moore. #Bears

Another go route to DJ Moore. This guy looks unguardable out here. #DaBears

Practice got a bit spirited between offense and defense
DeMarcus Walker got vocal after Justin Fields completed a pass to Robert Tonyan in team drills. Elijah Hicks had a pretty decent collision with Tonyan on the play.

#Bears first outdoor practice is Spirited in the trenches. Justin Jones getting in Cody Whitehair’s face.
— Mark Grote (@markgrotesports) July 27, 2023
Bears utilizing two tight end sets with Kmet, Tonyan
Two TE set but both TEs out wide.
Luke Getsy is going to be using his athletic TEs differently this year. Tough for defenses to matchup to. #DaBears #Bears #BearsCamp
— Clay Harbor (@clayharbs82) July 27, 2023
DeMarcus Walker bringing an edge on defense
New Bears DL DeMarcus Walker definitely adds a needed edge/fire to the defense. Two days in a row now you can see it — and hear it. That’s in individual drills and team.

Velus Jones, Tyler Scott took turns fielding punts (with Khalil Herbert joining Jones on kickoffs)

Things weren't as smooth for the offense on Day 2
Matt Eberflus probably won’t be happy with the drops today. Too many of those today. Also a fumble by Roschon Johnson #Bears

Injury news
Bears linebacker Dylan Cole walked gingerly to the locker room.

Post-practice notes
Practice is over. We'll hear from OC Luke Getsy shortly. First team O had its moments today but a couple of drops during final 7/7 that should get cleaned up. Chase Claypool had one but redeemed himself with a ball over the middle, which he hauled in after bobbling.
— Courtney Cronin (@CourtneyRCronin) July 27, 2023
The Bears wrapped up their first outdoor practice of training camp under the sweltering sun. Some intensity on display as work began in earnest. The Justin Fields-to-DJ Moore connection continues to be a highlight.
