Bears' Left Tackle Battle Heats Up | Chicago Bears News

from Chicago Bears News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Bears just pulled off a blockbuster move, trading for All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney to anchor their line — but the left tackle spot remains chaotic. With rookie Ozzy Trapilo sidelined and a revolving door of tackles (Jones, Benedet, now Trapilo), coach Ben Johnson admits it’s tough on Thuney to build chemistry weekly. Still, they’re not rushing — hoping for quicker cohesion than last year’s late-season breakthrough. GM Ryan Poles hints Trapilo might return sooner than expected, but even if he does, he’s likely too rusty for Week One. That means Jones, Amegadjie, and Wills are all in the mix — two will make the roster, one’s headed out. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
