Actually, I think that Teven Jenkins is getting ready to do just that. But there is something a little more serious here. In these joint practices, everybody's QBs are off limits for defensive hits. If Indy doesn't play nice in the sandbox, maybe we should turn our dogs loose.

This particular group of Bears OL are pretty nasty dudes. Violent dudes. It's not just Jenkins. The Colts coaches would be wise to shut this down tonight before the next practice tomorrow. I could see something major breaking out and players getting hurt. Especially if you end up with sidelines pouring into the fight and you have 50, 60 or more players fighting.

Here is Nicholas Moreano's summary of yesterday's practice session (link). Moreano has been doing some good stuff. I've started to read their site and have been watching their YT channel (link). Warning, he does drink the Kool-Aid with frequency.
Here is the author's summary of who did not participate:
Chase Claypool, Tremaine Edmunds, Lucas Patrick, Jaquan Brisker and Josh Blackwell didn’t practice. Also, I didn’t see Tyler Scott on the field today.
Also, it looks like Velus Jones is doing better. Nothing on kick returns but had a really solid long reception from JF1. I saw comments on social media that Jones was tracking the balls thrown to him perfectly. I hope this translated to the return game. This was the pass play where Fields ended up on the ground and Teven Jenkins played a little of the enforcer role.
Fields launched a pass deep down the left sideline during situational team drills at the end practice. Velus Jones Jr. started to separation from the Colts’ defensive back. Jones looked over his shoulder and the ball was right where it needed to be, and the second-year wide receiver completed the play by making a sliding catch.
On a side note, it looks like the issue of Fields getting hit by the Indy defense is ending up a nothing-burger. I hope both coaching staffs really emphasize this in their respective team meetings before the next session.
