(LAKE FOREST, IL) – Chicago Bears guard Kyle Long expressed remorse over his role in a heated practice fight last week that culminated with Long attacking a teammate with the teammate's own helmet. After Tuesday's practice, Long said what happened was unacceptable, and he handled it by speaking to his teammates and coaches. The incident occurred during last Wednesday's team scrimmage when Long got into it with Bears undrafted rookie defensive lineman Jalen Dalton. During the altercation, Dalton's helmet came off and ended up in Long's possession. The three-time Pro Bowler repeatedly swung the helmet at Dalton as teammates attempted to intervene. Long also threw punches during the fight and tossed Dalton's helmet across the field after the two were separated. Long watched the rest of the scrimmage from the sideline and then stayed behind when the Bears traveled to New Jersey the following day for their second preseason game against the New York Giants. Long's brief hiatus ended when he returned to practice on Tuesday. Aside from last week's incident, Long, 30, had been enjoying his best training camp in years. The former 2013 first-round pick is finally healthy after battling a slew of serious injuries that limited him to 26 regular-season games from 2016 to 2018. And despite being asked to take a paycut in the offseason, Long is firmly entrenched as the Bears' starting right guard.
