It was only an interception in a non-padded, non-contact offseason practice in May. But with the Bears coming off a 3-14 season, any hint of a playmaker is big news. At the very least, linebacker Tremaine Edmunds made a good first impression.

Edmunds, the Bears’ marquee free agent after signing a four-year, $72 million contract in March, capped off the media viewing portion of practice Tuesday by leaping to intercept a pass from backup quarterback PJ Walker in the end zone and returning it for a virtual pick-six, with a hearty celebration by the defensive teammates who escorted him to the end zone.
