Bears claim Canadian league standout from Dolphins
Today the Chicago Bears claimed former Canadian League Football player Michael Ola from the waiver wire from the Miami Dolphins.
A former right tackle at Hampton, Ola went undrafted in 2011 and had a brief stint in the arena league in 2012 before heading to the Montreal, where he played the last two seasons for the CFL’s Alouettes. Full information on games played/started is currently unavailable, but it appears Ola primarily played right tackle for the Alouettes as well.
In the NFL, however, Ola projects as more of an interior lineman and should see most if not all of his offseason work with the Bears at one of the guard positions.
