Bears quarterback Justin Fields (1) and the first-team offense played nine snaps in the preseason opener against the Titans in Nashville last season.With the preseason opener coming into focus on the first day of training camp practice in pads, coach Matt Eberflus said he plans to play his starters against the Titans on Aug. 12 at Soldier Field, but still is formulating the plan in full.
“We actually visited about that this morning,” Eberflus said after Tuesday’s practice at Halas Hall. “It will be some play time — a little bit in there. But [how much] I’m not sure. We’ll have to continue to discuss that.”
