Mitchell Trubisky Had Sage Advice for Caleb Williams Ahead of Second NFL Season
‘”It is a fish bowl, but at the same time I’d say enjoy it, really take it all in,” Trubisky said, via the CHGO Bears podcast. “I only had it for four years, but I wish I had it for longer to be honest. Take it in, enjoy the process, all eyes are on you in this city. It’s really a privilege, and there is a lot of pressure that comes with that, but it’s a privilege.

‘The second-year safety returned from a quad injury this week, so his reps might be managed to some degree tonight.

Laviska Shenault's versatility on full display for Bills in preseason
‘“You’re talking about these down-the-line guys in terms of what they have to be able to do as opposed to playing just one spot, one position,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said. “It’s hard to keep niche players unless they’re really special. So every situation is different, don’t get me wrong, but the more you can do, the more you help us out holistically on the roster.”’
How the Bills' Michael Hoecht, Larry Ogunjobi are using camp to prepare for suspensions
‘“I’ll be watching on TV and watching on an iPad, so I’m trying to practice that now so when we get into that time, I’m not learning how to do it then,” Hoecht, 27, told The Buffalo News following practice Tuesday. “In the NFL, you have to learn how to play football by watching other people and watching film.

‘Allen connected on a deep throw to Dalton Kincaid on the first play of 7-on-7 drills, as the third-year tight end high pointed the ball to make a contested catch over Bears safety Jaquan Brisker. Trouble began soon thereafter with Tyrell Shavers and Kristian Wilkerson each dropping a pass from Allen. The defending MVP threw three consecutive incompletions in tight coverage, the latter of which got intercepted by Kevin Byard III.’

Buffalo Bills joint practice riddled with mistakes. What else did we learn?
‘The Bills clearly matched the physicality of the Bears, which is something the Miami Dolphins reportedly did not do last week when they were here for a joint practice. However, while the Bills matched Chicago’s intensity, there were far too many mistakes made on both sides of the ball.’
