Chicago reacts to Darnell Wright’s four-year, $116M extension and details Coby Bryant’s knee hyperextension/bone bruise expected to sideline him 8–10 weeks, plus an ongoing left tackle competition led by Braxton Jones. Minnesota centers on a Kyler Murray vs. J.J. McCarthy QB competition with inconsistent practices, notes Jordan Addison extension implications after Zay Flowers’ deal, and praises rookie CB Chuck Demings’ standout camp.
