Chicago Bears Q&A: Will Justin Fields play in the season opener? Is Matt Nagy underestimating what the fan reaction will be for Andy Dalton? And is it common to restructure contracts like they did with Jimmy Graham?

The Bears are working fifth-round pick Larry Borom exclusively at left tackle, and it will be very interesting to see if he or Elijah Wilkinson is active Sunday night against the Rams. Typically, teams dress only three offensive tackles for a game, and Alex Bars, who I imagine will be active, has the ability to slot in anywhere on the line if someone is injured. I believe the Bears are grooming Borom as a potential starter at left tackle in the future. That doesn’t mean second-round pick Teven Jenkins is definitely headed to right tackle whenever he returns from back surgery, but it certainly indicates it’s a possibility. The Bears could use two young offensive tackles considering Peters is 39 and he and right tackle Germain Ifedi are on one-year contracts. Peters has struggled to remain healthy in recent seasons, so there is a good chance we see Borom at left tackle at some point. While it looked like the Bears might consider a rotation early in the season to account for Peters’ conditioning, coaches indicate he’s good to go. My hunch is the plan is for him to play the entire game Sunday night.
