It was a loaded day at Halas Hall on Thursday, where Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson announced that Tyson Bagent would start Saturday’s preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns, with the expectation that he’ll play about a half. Caleb Williams will not play in the game, and Johnson limits his preseason reps.

Kevin Warren and George McCaskey addressed the progress on a new Bears stadium, with the recurring theme being that the team is focused on the Hammond site. Two separate or connected Hammond options are officially in play. How close are the Bears to the goal line? Plus, we heard from the coaching assistant for the first time in training camp. O-Line coach Dan Roushar provides key updates on his group’s progress so far. Join Adam Hoge, Greg Braggs Jr. and Adam Jahns on the CHGO Bears Podcast!
