Day 2 of Chicago Bears minicamp came and went on Wednesday, and it was once again another hot and humid practice up at Halas Hall. Head coach Ben Johnson had his squad outdoors getting work in as both the offense and defense came away with big highlights throughout the day.

Here were the standouts from the second day of Bears practice:

Tuesday wasn't the sharpest day for quarterback Caleb Williams as minicamp began, but he responded with a much better outing on Wednesday. Williams had a few sharp throws in practice, the best one being a touchdown pass to wide receiver Kalif Raymond . As Herb Howard of the Bigs Media puts it, Williams made a "physics-defying" pass to his left with his body going the other way to Raymond. He also made a nice throw to tight end Colston Loveland on an out route, according to CHGO's Mark Carman.

The Bears' prized free agent acquisition made his presence felt in practice on Wednesday. Safety Coby Bryant came away with an interception off Williams when he stepped in front of wide receiver Jahdae Walker to make a nice hands catch. Bryant went the other way with the ball before sliding down in the middle of the field. Bryant is still getting acclimated to a new-look secondary, but he seems to be off to a good start going against the offense.

On Wednesday, Ben Johnson called Dayo Odeyingbo's participation in minicamp a "bonus" since he's still recovering from his torn Achilles suffered in early November last season. It sounds like his recovery is going even better than we initially thought. Odeyingbo has been active in team drills this week, but Herb Howard noticed he looks "fully back" with his get-off and ability to bend around the edge. Time will tell if Odeyingbo can live up to the lucrative contract he signed last offseason considering he was a disappointment while on the field, but this is a great sign for his availability going into training camp and the start of the regular season.

Veteran receiver Scotty Miller latched onto the Bears back in May when he earned a roster spot during a tryout, and he's doing what he can to show he deserves to stick around when the regular season gets underway. Miller made one of the better catches on Wednesday when he hauled in a deep ball from quarterback Case Keenum while working with the third-string offense, according to ESPN's Courtney Cronin. Miller's reps with the first-team offense may be limited, but perhaps he can develop a connection with Keenum when training camp rolls around.
