JavaScript / ECMAScript code

jsJavaScript
const re = new RegExp("Bearer\\s+([A-Za-z0-9\\-._~+\\/]+=*)", "i");
const input = "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.abc.def";
const matches = [...input.matchAll(re)];
console.log(matches.map(m => m[0]));

Uses `String.prototype.matchAll` for global iteration (Node 12+ / all modern browsers).

Pattern

regexengine-agnostic
Bearer\s+([A-Za-z0-9\-._~+\/]+=*)   (flags: i)

Raw source: Bearer\s+([A-Za-z0-9\-._~+\/]+=*)

How it works

Bearer\s+ matches the scheme keyword (case-insensitive via i flag) and required whitespace. ([A-Za-z0-9\-._~+\/]+=*) captures the token value using the set of characters allowed in OAuth 2.0 Bearer tokens, with optional trailing = padding.
