Overview
- Wright left a training‑camp red‑zone drill after two plays with trainers examining his right elbow and then walked into the team facility for evaluation.
- ESPN reporter Courtney Cronin relayed that the Bears believe Wright is "fine," and the team held a light practice before flying to Tennessee for a joint session with the Titans.
- The right elbow is the same one that sustained a UCL tear in 2025, when Wright skipped surgery, wore a protective brace and played the rest of that season.
- Chicago signed Wright to a four‑year, $114 million extension in early August, making his short‑term availability a key concern for protecting quarterback Caleb Williams and sustaining the run game.
- Coaches and medical staff will closely monitor Wright in the coming days to see whether he practices in Tennessee, how his snap count is managed, and whether the team must rely on backup Theo Benedet if more rest is needed.
