The Bears celebrated their last mandatory minicamp practice on Thursday by sending their offensive linemen out for passes during drills. One-by-one, centers, guards and tackles sprinted up the sideline and caught passes from the team’s quarterbacks.

Or tried to, at least.

Asked who caught his attention, backup quarterback Tyson Bagent smiled.

“Nobody I threw the ball to at least,” he said to a roar of laughter.

Right tackle Darnell Wright made the catch of the day, plucking the ball out of the air with his right hand and spinning before he hit the ground.
