Bears are expected to sign former Panthers OT over Jake Long
The Bears invited offensive tackle Jake Long in for a workout Thursday, but have decided to go in a different direction.
Former Carolina Panthers tackle Nate Chandler reportedly plans to sign with the Bears, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. This is not a testament of how well Chandler is, but rather how bad Jake Long must look. Remember he was the first pick in the NFL Draft.
