BOURBONNAIS, Ill. — While Matt Nagy said he liked what James Daniels put on tape over 44 snaps at center Thursday night, the Bears’ coach said he’s not considering a path to get the second-round rookie into the starting lineup at that position just yet.
That path would have to begin with Cody Whitehair taking snaps at left guard, clearing the way for Daniels to work with the first-team offensive line as a center. Perhaps the 20-year-old Daniels could work his way into the mix at left guard, which has been manned primarily by Eric Kush during training camp.
