There are plenty of questions surrounding the Chicago Bears offensive line ahead of training camp. Namely, what the starting lineup is going to look like come Week 1.
Head coach Matt Eberflus said he’d like the offensive line figured out “the sooner the better,” but that won’t happen before training camp next month. While there are a couple of positions that are all but set in stone with some veteran presence, there are questions at both tackle spots and right guard.
Right now, all combinations are open along the offensive line. Which isn’t exactly reassuring when you’re looking to put your young quarterback Justin Fields in a position to succeed.
We’re examining every position along Chicago’s offensive line ahead of training camp next month.

Left tackle is the most intriguing position heading into training camp, as it’s a job that’s fully up for grabs. But that’s exactly what makes it the most concerning position, as well. While Larry Borom started the offseason program at left tackle, it was fifth-round rookie Braxton Jones who ended it at left tackle. At this point, it looks like the left tackle will be either Borom or Jones. But it’s worth noting that Jones has emerged as a legitimate candidate for the starting left tackle job.
