Joe Thuney will move to LT for the Bears vs. Rams

Our Summary

The Chicago Bears will start Joe Thuney at left tackle against the Los Angeles Rams, replacing Ozzy Trapilo, who is out for the season with a patellar tendon injury. Thuney, previously moved to left tackle by the Chiefs late last season, last played the position in Super Bowl LIX. This makes Thuney the fourth starting left tackle for the Bears this season, following Braxton Jones, Theo Benedet, and Trapilo. Additionally, Jordan McFadden will make his first start for the Bears at left guard. McFadden, a fifth-round pick by the Chargers in 2023, has logged limited snaps this season.
