The Latest Breaking News from Matt Eberflus

SEATTLE — Two thousand miles was a long way to travel for one series of football that lasted 10 plays and less than six minutes. But Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields at least had a few positives to review during the trip back from Seattle on Thursday night.

Bears CB Kyler Gordon's preseason debut served as a homecoming for the Washington native. The rookie reflects on his performance.

He’ll play slot cornerback, one of the most important in Matt Eberflus’ defensive scheme, to start the season.

From Justin Fields' fit on offense to Teven Jenkins impressing at guard, here are our takeaways from the Bears' preseason win vs. Seattle.

The Bears defeated the Seahawks 27-11 to advance to 2-0 in the preseason. Take a look at the action:

Why didn't Bears HC Matt Eberflus throw the challenge flag on the Isaiah Coulter catch? Eberflus explains:

The Bears’ pass rush looked good with Quinn and Al-Quadin Muhammad playing together for the first time. Matt Eberflus misses a challenge opportunity. And Trevor Siemian has looked competent as the backup quarterback.

It might take a while for Jones to earn a spot in the offense, but he can be a factor in the return game until then. He nearly fumbled away the opening kickoff Thursday, but also had a big return that led to a touchdown.

The disgruntled linebacker, who was on the sideline for the game against the Seahawks, is the lone “hold-in” remaining in the NFL after safety Derwin James signed a four-year, $76.4 million contract extension with the Chargers. Will that push the Bears to make a deal? Don’t count on it.

Roquan Smith will be in Seattle with the team, but won’t play. Tight end Cole Kmet and running back David Montgomery likely will return, but it’s unclear how long quarterback Justin Fields will play. And the full offensive line still hasn’t arrived.

The Bears returned to Halas Hall for their 15th practice of training camp, where Matt Eberflus, Cole Kmet and more met with the media.
