Where Bears Left Tackle Situation Appears Headed for Cincinnati Trip

Bears left tackle is still unsettled after Saturday’s 34-10 preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns, and the competition remains focused on Kiran Amegadjie versus Jedrick Wills Jr. Wills gave up a sack of Tyson Bagent to Browns edge rusher Julian Okwara in the second quarter and then left the game, with Amegadjie returning. Notably, the Bears brought Amegadjie back even though his playing time in preseason is typically finished. Amegadjie said it’s hard to regain rhythm after being out. But coach Ben Johnson said the team couldn’t truly assess left tackle because the offensive line faced pressure and the quarterback, Tyson Bagent and later Case Keenum, “got hit more than [Johnson] would like.”
