The Chicago Bears kicked off training camp with their first practice on Wednesday, which was held inside the Walter Payton Center and closed to the public.
It was a ramp-up practice to start things off, but there were plenty of storylines to come out of Day 1.
There have been quick-hit video clips surfacing, from the team and the media, after the first practice. That includes a look at quarterback Justin Fields and wide receiver DJ Moore’s continued connection, as well as an impressive one-handed grab by rookie wideout Aron Cruickshank.
Here are some highlights from the first practice of Bears training camp:

The D.J. Moore touchdown grab will obviously be the focus from Wednesday's practice but this one-handed grab by Aron Cruickshank is just stupid good.
