Chicago Bears OT Teven Jenkins misses 6th straight practice with undisclosed injury

LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Teven Jenkins' extended absence from training camp continues to raise questions about the second-year offensive tackle's status with the Chicago Bears.

Jenkins missed a sixth straight practice on Wednesday, the team's second day in pads, after only participating during the Bears' first day of training camp on July 27. Coach Matt Eberflus remains insistent that Jenkins' absence is due to injury and continued to designate him as day-to-day.

"Teven's in that group where he's working with the trainers and he'll be back when he's back," Eberflus said.

Jenkins has been present at Halas Hall to work with the training staff, according to Eberflus.
