Shuffling their offensive line during offseason workouts and training camp has helped the Bears deal with injuries to two veteran starters and a key position change.
Since the Bears broke camp in Bourbonnais, they've lost center Will Montgomery for the season with a leg injury and left tackle Jermon Bushrod for three games with a concussion. They also moved two-time Pro Bowler Kyle Long from right guard to right tackle.
"As you go into the season and you're preparing, you try to look ahead and move guys around," said offensive line coach Dave Magazu.
