Bears place linebacker TJ Edwards on non-football injury list
Summary

The Chicago Bears have placed linebacker TJ Edwards on the non-football injury list as training camp begins. Edwards is dealing with a minor muscle strain, which is not considered serious. This injury is separate from a broken fibula he suffered during a playoff game against the Green Bay Packers. Reports indicate that his stay on the NFI list will be brief, as he has been practicing during mini camp, signaling a potential return to the field soon. The Bears hope all injured players, including Edwards, can resume training at camp.
