Chicago Bears: Predicting the final 53-man roster for 2021

Chicago Bears Offensive Line

Left Tackle: Jason Peters

Peters is a future Hall of Fame lineman. He isn’t the same as he was a couple of years ago but he showed good movement when he played in the preseason finale against the Tennessee Titans. Let’s see how he performs once the season begins.

Left Guard: Cody Whitehair

Whitehair once again begins a season playing in a different position. He’s bounced around from guard to center then to guard again. Once he took over at left guard last season he was one of the top-rated linemen in the league.

Center: Sam Mustipher

Mustipher finally enters a season in which he is the starter. He’s been on the practice squad a couple of times. Last season, with all the injuries and COVID hitting the unit, the Bears promoted Mustipher. He found his groove at center and didn’t look back. Now it’s his position and he’s ready to go.

Right Guard: James Daniels

Daniels was the Bears’ top-rated lineman last season before he went down with a pectoral tear. He’s healthy and ready to play again. He’ll help make the interior part of the line even better than it was late last season.

Right Tackle: Germain Ifedi

Ifedi struggled at the tackle position when he was with the Seattle Seahawks. He came to Chicago and the Bears moved him to right guard. He did a pretty good job there but when Bobby Massie went down, he moved over to tackle again. There he did a good job. The Bears re-signed him to play tackle again.

Backups: Larry Borom, Elijah Wilkinson, Alex Bars
