While there are concerns about Chicago’s offensive line, Cody Whitehair isn’t among them. Since joining the Bears in 2016, Whitehair has served as a versatile member of Chicago’s offensive line, and he looks to be a core member of the unit for the next few years.

Whitehair has played both left guard and center, when called upon, and his play warranted a second contract — a five-year, $51.25 million deal with $27 million guaranteed. Whitehair, who made the Pro Bowl in 2018, figures to resume his role as center, which he took over for James Daniels mid-way through last season, when they switched back to their 2018 positions.
