Depth I guess

I live in Chicago. Have never heard of this person. He could be good, but the Bears lost 11 straight games and the oline was historically terrible. See Cards v Bears 2024.

Backup swing tackle! 9 career starts at both T and G.

Odd.

Depth I guess

Probably insurance if Jonah isn't ready and Beachum has to start.

Isn’t something better than this available after cut downs?….Why bother unless they really see something nobody else does….

Camp body. He sucked in Chicago.

 

[oaken1]

100% camp body

:Championship:

A lot of folks complained about this guy too, but he was a decent backup who filled decently well when needed the last seasons.

Replacing Barton as 5th OT I assume.

Security if Williams is not ready by start of the season?

 

[BritCard]

Cody Barton replacement.

I will say this. The FO are good at finding upside depth guys for little money like Colon. Curhan was drafted as a tackle but never really had the foot speed or balance for the NFL level. You can see in the reply here Brandon Thorns draft profile in reply. Say he's a mauling, high effort guy with limited athleticism that would be more suited to Guard.

But can also play tackle in a pinch so it's a good depth piece. Like Barton, likely a camp bod/ practice squad guy you keep around for depth.

Curhan played 92% of his snaps at guard last year. Could be useful depth on the interior, where the Cardinals' only current backup is Jon Gaines.

Chicago's offensive line play reached a new low on Thursday Night Football.

Sure as hell better not mean we're done at G.

My concern over signing a guy like this is that I am sure much of our improved line play the last couple seasons was due to our Oline coach...and he aint with us no more.
