The Bears bolstered their offensive line on Tuesday with the signing of Bradley Sowell to a one-year contract.

Sowell, 27, was the Week 1 starter at right tackle for the Seattle Seahawks last season. He appeared in 10 games and made nine starts for the Seahawks in 2016.

Sowell spent 2013-15 with the Arizona Cardinals and appeared in all 48 games during his tenure with the team, making 12 starts at left tackle in 2013.

Sowell was originally signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Mississippi in 2012. He was waived after not making the final 53-man roster and was later signed by the Indianapolis Colts.

Sowell is the second offensive lineman the Bears have signed since the NFL Draft concluded. On Monday the Bears agreed to terms with veteran interior lineman Taylor Boggs to a one-year deal.
