Jenkins is playing his third position in three seasons for the Bears.

For the first time in at least three years, the Bears are heading into the season with a clear starting offensive line made up completely of starting-caliber players. Barring injury, this isn’t a year in which a late-signing free agent can show up and challenge for a job.

The versatility of Cody Whitehair and Teven Jenkins have been vital in putting that group together.

Whitehair moved from left guard back to center, where he began his pro career. Jenkins has had a far more turbulent time with the Bears.
