It feels like Chicago Bears training camp is officially in progress now that the pads have gone on and the media is in presence to communicate the storylines unfolding at camp.
Tuesdays practice, the second padded practice of camp, had its share of great and bad moments. While Bears tight ends and Mitchell Trubisky satisfied, Chicago lost cornerback Artie Burns to a torn ACL.
Here are five takeaways from Chicagos 2nd cushioned practice:
1. TE Jimmy Graham has actually been excellent in first 2 days of cushioned practice
Jimmy Graham finished up red zone work Tuesday with a pretty 4-yard goal catch from Mitch Trubisky over safety Tashaun Gipson on a fade route. During 7-on-7 work, Graham somehow nabbed another Trubisky tight-window TD toss in the middle of three defenders in the back of completion zone.
Jimmy Graham has been one of the standouts in the very first couple days of padded practices. And he was certainly the talk of training camp following an outstanding practice Tuesday, as well as a scuffle with security Deon Bush. With the Bears getting a lot of red zone work in, the 33-year old veteran made some outstanding touchdown grabs from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky.

” Jimmy has actually been incredible,” Trubisky stated. As soon as you get to know him, I believe you get to see how wise he is, how cerebral he is about the video game and his experience.
” Jimmy has actually been remarkable,” Trubisky said.
Heres how it decreased by means of the Chicago Tribune.
The Bears signed Graham to a two-year, $16 million deal this offseason to assist bolster the death game. And if Graham can take what hes doing on the practice field and translate it to the field during routine season, the Bears offense could look a lot different this season.
I have no concept if it is sustainable over the course of a complete season, however Jimmy Graham has looked exceptional these last 2 days. https://t.co/FQNrhsSKVn
