LAKE FOREST, Ill. - One of the highlights from the third and final day of the Chicago Bears' mandatory minicamp was backup quarterback Case Keenum making a behind-the-back catch with two hands. It came after quarterback Caleb Williams caught a deep pass from receiver Devin Duvernay (who first made a catch on a throw from backup QB Tyson Bagent) and raced into the end zone where he screamed and celebrated. It was a fun day at Halas Hall.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. - A booming punt from Tory Taylor hit the soggy grass inside the 10-yard line of Field 1 at Halas Hall. It bounced into the air and was quickly downed.

Ben Johnson didn't have a job. After eight seasons with the Miami Dolphins, which included numerous roles, coaching positions and promotions, he was out of work and in NFL limbo. It was an unwelcome feeling for a 33-year-old coach with big dreams. "I kind of got the feeling that the cycle had already gone by," Johnson said of his job status in 2019, "and I would have to wait till the next cycle."Johnson, though, couldn't stay away from football. He needed it.
