Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards and quarterback Justin Fields talk at practice during training camp on Aug. 8, 2023, at Halas Hall.
So it was encouraging Wednesday afternoon to hear Edmunds deliver the latest result after a two-hour practice at Halas Hall.That was a step in the right direction for one of the Bears’ best defensive players and most important leaders. Edmunds’ return to practice Wednesday marked his first time on the field since Aug. 2, ending a stretch of 11 consecutive missed practices. And while he was limited in what he was allowed to do, Edmunds feels like he’s building momentum.
“This is my sixth year in, man,” he said. “That’s just training camp. Things are going to come up. That’s life in the NFL.”. Edmunds knows he must be a presence at middle linebacker with his length, instincts and range. And he’s eager to bolster a unit he has watched gather momentum in his absence.Linebackers coach Dave Borgonzi said he has been impressed since the spring with the way Edmunds carries himself and how his experience shows up.
