Bears Begin Minicamp as NFL, Colleges Prepare

The Chicago Bears have begun their mandatory minicamp under new head coach Ben Johnson, with a spotlight on rookie quarterback Caleb Williams as he adapts to the team's new offensive system. Across the NFL, Florida teams such as the Dolphins, Jaguars, and Buccaneers are set to start their own mandatory minicamps next week. The Detroit Lions are wrapping up their final OTAs before training camp, addressing roster issues like filling the center position following Frank Ragnow's retirement and determining the backup quarterback role. In college baseball, Florida State and Miami have both advanced to the Super Regionals, with potential for a head-to-head matchup if both win their series. College football storylines include Florida State's efforts to rebound from a poor season, Miami's ACC prospects, and coaching evaluations at top programs including Alabama and Texas A&M. These developments illustrate a busy period across football and college baseball as teams prepare for upcoming seasons.
