Because of Injuries, Offensive Line Has a New Look

Even though they lost veteran starters Addison Ooms and Patrick Mekari the Bears thought that going into the season they had this offensive line thing figured out.

Until they didn’t.

After just two games the unit has undergone a major overhaul. So much for counting on the starters’ game experience. For a second consecutive season, injuries hit hard. Only right tackle Jake Curhan and center Michael Saffell remain from the original starting five.
