| 8/28/22 | Justin Fields Displays New Mentality That Bodes Well for Year 2 Rise. The Bears' first-team offense had been clunky and disjointed in their early preseason work, scoring only three points in their first five drives of the exhibition season.

| 8/23/22 | Ryan Griffin defines Chicago Bears method for success. If there is going to be Bears success this year in the face of countless predictions to the contrary, it will likely occur the way backup tight end Ryan Griffin pointed out after Tuesday's long practice in the heat at Halas Hall.

"It takes all 11 for the run game but that being said, once we do impose our will in the run game on the ground, that opens things up," tight end Ryan Griffin said. "Some (defensive) guys in the back end get antsy, try to come down a little close in the box and we can run by them, run around them. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/nfl/bears/news/unders... |
