Clemson G John Simpson dubbed answer to Bears' O-line problem

Every NFL team will have questions that need answering this offseason, and in the case of the Bears, GM Ryan Pace needs to find an answer for the club's offensive line problem.

Gone is starting guard Kyle Long (retirement), and while Rashaad Coward was adequate while filling in for the injured veteran in 2019, the Bears are expected to at least bring in competition to start this offseason.

That competition may come via the 2020 NFL Draft, where Clemson's Josh Simpson was recently dubbed the perfect answer to Chicago's need at guard.

Though John Simpson has settled at left guard this season, he's lined up on both sides of the Clemson line.
