Bears' OL Battle and Injury Updates | NFL News
Description
The Bears’ offensive line is in chaos as the starting left tackle spot remains up for grabs just 27 days before kickoff—Braxton Jones got the first-team nod, but Theo Benedet briefly took over, while Jedrick Wills Jr. stays on the second unit and Kiran Amegadjie left early. Coach Ben Johnson stresses the need for quick decisions to build chemistry, especially with Joe Thuney demanding consistency after last year’s slow start. Meanwhile, Ozzy Trapilo is activated from PUP but still can’t join drills, while key players like Kyler Gordon (calf), Luther Burden III (groin), and Kyle Monangai (knee) remain sidelined. Backup QB Tyson Bagent’s hamstring injury casts doubt on his next game, and new DE Marcus Davenport didn’t practice. Tyrique Stevenson and Jaylon Jones are out with undisclosed injuries—but safety Xavier Woods returned strong, playing with the starters.
