Teven Jenkins Cody Whitehair Sam Mustipher James Daniels Germain Ifedi Larry Borom Jason Peters (Questionable) Elijah Wilkinson Alex Bars Lachavious SimmonsThe Bears are getting healthier at offensive tackle, and the only question appears to be who will get the starting nods at left and right tackle.

Nose tackle Eddie Goldman is also questionable with a finger injury.
