The Chicago Bears signed offensive tackle Alex Taylor to the practice squad, the team announced Wednesday.
It’s not exactly encouraging news following injuries to left tackles Jason Peters (quad) and rookie Larry Borom (ankle). Backup right tackle Elijah Wilkinson stepped in at left tackle in the second half of Chicago’s Week 1 loss.
The Bears practice for the first time on Wednesday, so we’ll get an idea of exactly where Peters and Borom are when the first injury report is released.
