Bears-Colts joint practice roundup: Highlights and notes from Day 1

The Chicago Bears headed to Indianapolis for their first joint practice with the Colts on Wednesday ahead of Saturday’s preseason game.

There was plenty to learn from the fans and media in attendance, who shared some highlights and videos from the padded practice. Things got physical, whether it was rookie cornerback Tyrique Stevenson bringing the juice on special teams or the Colts defense hitting Fields a couple of times, which the Bears did not like.
