Chicago Bears rookie tackle Ozzy Trapilo is transitioning to left tackle after playing right tackle in college. Despite having experience on the left side, he finds relearning the position necessary. Trapilo, alongside second-year tackle Kiran Amegadjie, has been sharing reps in a competition to replace incumbent Braxton Jones, who is sidelined with an ankle injury. Trapilo notes that this is an excellent opportunity to refine skills, while head coach Ben Johnson praises his mental acuity.

With three new interior starters, the Bears are focused on reshaping their offensive line. The competition for the left tackle spot is heating up as both Trapilo and Amegadjie display promise. Amegadjie's previous struggles are well documented, but fresh training could prove beneficial. Keeping an eye on their development will be critical, especially when Jones returns and can add his experience back into the mix.
