The second week of the NFL Prep begins tonight with a battle between the Chicago Bears and the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks have some notable, passive players. Drew Luke, who was due to start as Seattle continues to battle in the middle, will not be able to compete against Jenno Smith, who has tested positive for COVID-19. Rookie ran back Kenneth Walker III, too, as he’s dealing with a hernia problem.
For Chicago, the offensive line will be looking to bounce back after their performance against the Kansas City Chiefs last weekend. The streak allowed a total of five sacks, but the quarterbacks had some success. Justin Fields completed 4 of 7 passes for 48 yards in limited action, and had 2 nice finishes. Trevor Simian had a solid run, throwing two touchdowns to tease Chicago’s second inning that got the Bears into the winning column. Keep an eye on the safety of debutante Jaquan Brisker, who fans got excited about after his first performance on the show.
It’s Thursday night lights between two NFC opponents. Follow along on the live blog below, as we continue the march through pre-season.
