The Chicago Bears return to Halas Hall on Tuesday morning for their sixth practice of training camp.
With media and fans in attendance, there’s plenty to keep an eye on during Tuesday’s practice, which marks the first official padded practice of the summer. All eyes will be on the offensive and defensive linemen, linebackers and running backs, as well as the continued connection between quarterback Justin Fields and wide receiver DJ Moore, position battles and more.
Here are some live updates from those in attendance at Day 6 of Bears training camp:
Practice has concluded.

Mooney vs Kyler Goaline 1 on 1s great battle. Mooney won both reps. Rep 1 from the slot great release off the line made a great catch in the back of the Endzone. Rep 2 lined up out wide high pointed a fade route for another TD.

1st play of 11 on 11s is a 3 step drop for a slant to DJ Moore from Justin Fields.

Darnell Mooney is back.
He has cooked both DB's he's gone against with his speed, agility, and catching skills.

7th and final rep for Fields in the first 11 on 11s is blown up by Jack Sanborn on a blitz who almost certainly would've sacked Fields.
Fields gets out of the pocket to his left and tries to hit Ebner on the sideline. Incomplete.
2nd team up next.

Justin Fields takes it himself on a run up the middle. Darnell Wright lost his balance and Fields ran into the rookie. Good pop on that run from Fields, who easily kept his balance and kept running.

2nd play of team red on we get a little flash of how the Bears are gonna use Darnell Wright.
He pulls and blows up a D lineman to get in the end zone. Very athletic for a big guy. Uncommon to see a tackle that can pull that well. #DaBears #Bears
— Clay Harbor (@clayharbs82) August 1, 2023
Back-to-back TDs for the first-team offense. First one, Darnell Mooney scored on a run to the right side. Believe an end around. Nice spin move to get in the end zone.
Then, Fields stepped up in the pocket with the rush closing and found Chase Claypool for a TD on the left side.

Final play of the 2nd reps in Red Zone 11 on 11s for 1st team:

Day 6 (Pads) Review:
1. Bears DL against the run is 📈
2. Justin Fields threaded the needle A LOT
3. DJ Moore + Fields = Duo of 2023
4. Claypool and Mooney are back
5. Watch out for Dexter Sr. and Pickens

Lucas Patrick is bringing the intensity for the Bears on their first day of full pads.

Next 2 plays of Goalline 11 on 11s are successful TDs for the OLine. Easy push to get Herbert and Foreman in up the middle.
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
1st play action so far of Goalline 11 on 11s is a rollout for PJ Walker who was chased down by Dylan Cole stopped at the 5 yd line.
Good pursuit.
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
First ever padded 1-on-1s in the NFL for rookie DTs Gervon Dexter and Zacch Pickens and I liked what I saw. Both got consistent penetration. One REALLY good rep for Dexter with quick get off for an easy win.

Jack Sanborn leaving practice with an athletic trainer. DeMarcus Walker also exited earlier with a trainer.

Darnell Wright had a nice goal line period.
Good pad level and movement from the big fella. #DaBears #Bears

Last 11 on 11s sessions starts with:
1) Trevis Gipson making Fields flush out of the pocket to his left. Fields finds Kmet on the short sidelines for a completion.
2) Kmet again on an out route. Easy completion for Fields.

Justin bought time and threw a pass to Claypool but Claypool couldn't come down with it. Good coverage from Kyler, solid ball placement from Justin

Justin loads up and finds Tyler Scott DEEP for a out 30 yards

Justin Fields bomb to Tyler Scott into the wind. Super Bowl.
— Adam Hoge (@AdamHoge) August 1, 2023
It’s been clear early in training camp that Justin Fields has a strengthened trust in Chase Claypool. Feeding him the football, even in tight coverage, and they’re connecting.
— Chris Emma (@CEmma670) August 1, 2023
Justin Fields finds Tyler Scott for a big gain in two minute down middle of field.
Trevis Gipson was coming off edge though. Would have been close to a “sack” if full speed and they allowed sacks.
Scott continues to create separation. #Bears
— Zack Pearson (@Zack_Pearson) August 1, 2023
Fields -> Scott on the deep ball.
This is going to be fun to watch! https://t.co/GzKF2agISA

3rd play of the final 11 on 11s.
Great coverage makes Fields hold onto it for sometimes. He flushes left and throws a jump ball to Chase Claypool who nearly comes down with it until Greg Stroman Jr gives him physicality to the ground to force the ball out. Claypool got up slow
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
Justin Fields rolled to his right and delivered a strike to DJ Moore for a TD. Good throw. #Bears
— Zack Pearson (@Zack_Pearson) August 1, 2023
BIG TIME HOMERUN BALL TO TYLER SCOTT FROM JUSTIN FIELDS!!! 🔥
1 on 1 with Greg Stroman Jr and completely got dusted by Scott. Fields put it up 50 yards or so. Tyler had to wait for it but was so wide open that it was an easy catch and score.
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
In a two-minute drill, Justin Fields led the offense down field against the second-team defense. He connected with Tyler Scott for a BIG gain on a deep ball. Finished it off with a TD to DJ Moore.

Yeesh. Jaquan Brisker read a throw perfectly. Broke on it and picked off PJ Walker on the right side of two-minute drill. #Bears

I love how hyped the defense gets when it does something good. They’re bonding! #BNBearsCamp pic.twitter.com/UoVLBPcYe5

PJ Walker shaky in his 11 on 11s to finish practice.
1st throw to the left side is late and broken up by Terrell Smith.
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
1st team defense is picking on 2nd team offense. 😂
Kyler Gordon just decked TE Stephen Carlson across the middle and let him know about it.
— Greg Braggs Jr. (@GBraggsJr23) August 1, 2023
That's about is for practice today. Flus is up at the podium soon, followed by Teven Jenkins, Braxton Jones and Tyrique Stevenson
— 79th & Halas Podcast (@79thAndHalas) August 1, 2023
Bears first-team offense finished their two-minute drill with a touchdown. Justin Fields connected with Tyler Scott on a deep ball, and then scrambled and found DJ Moore for the score on third down.
— Kevin Fishbain (@kfishbain) August 1, 2023
Not a great day for Velus Jones.
PJ Walker just flushed to the left sidelines makes a beautiful tight window throw between Brisker and Jaylon Johnson.
It hits Velus right in the hands and he tried to toe tap as he made the catch and just dropped it.

2 minute drill highlights
-Great route/separation from Tyler Scott on a deep ball from Fields. Strong pressure from DL before the throw.
-Fields buys time on 3rd/5, finds Moore in endzone for TD.
-Jaquan Brisker picks off PJ Walker— Courtney Cronin (@CourtneyRCronin) August 1, 2023
Jaquan Brisker covered some SERIOUS ground to pick off PJ Walker in the second set of move the ball.
This dude has range. #DaBears #Bears #ChicagoBears

Nathan Peterman looking crisp on the 2 minute drill 11 on 11 period with completion after completion after completion, before an almost pick as time expired. #Bears
— Lester A. Wiltfong Jr. (@wiltfongjr) August 1, 2023
Nathan Peterman is absolutely gonna slay in the preseason. Against backups. Probably in the fourth quarter only. #BNBearsCamp
— Bleacher Nation Bears (@BN_Bears) August 1, 2023
An already thin Bears pass rush is down one DeMarcus Walker right now. Walker left practice late this morning. So did Jack Sanborn. Will try to press Flus for updates.
— Dan Wiederer (@danwiederer) August 1, 2023
Justin Fields ended the day with some highlights. In two-min situation vs 2s, he completed a bomb to Tyler Scott and ended the possession with a scramble-drill TD to DJ Moore.
That was the first offense’s second attempt in the situation. They went three-and-out on their first.
— Adam Jahns (@adamjahns) August 1, 2023
Jaquan Brisker had a leaping interception off P.J. Walker too. Walker threw it into double coverage. https://t.co/WG3mt81A7x
