This place has very Field of Dreams vibes the way the players come out from the forest to practice.
Really great place the Colts have here. pic.twitter.com/Da07dQHLzf

Bears defensive end DeMarcus Walker and right guard Nate Davis are back in full pads today for a second day of practice. Good sign for both of them coming back from injuries.

I do not see Eddie Jackson at practice tonight. He collided with Michael Pittman during move the ball period late in practice Wednesday and immediately went to the sideline.

No sign of Eddie Jackson as stretches begin for the Bears. Tremaine Edmunds is here but he’s not in pads. He’ll remain out.

Suggestion box: One of the cool things they do here at Colts camp is announce the specifics of what every period is. Very helpful to fans to know what is going down.
