Bears

The Bears added to their offensive line depth on Wednesday as they announced the signing of Eric Kush to a two-year deal.

Kush, who the Bears claimed off waivers from the Los Angeles Rams last August, provided key depth on the offensive line in 2016.

The 27-year-old Kush started a career-high four games and appeared in eight contests for the Bears last season.

Before becoming an HBO Hard Knocks star best known for being the "Man of a thousand tanks" last summer, Kush had bounced around the NFL, appearing in 18 games with the Kansas City Chiefs (2013-14) and Rams (2015). Kush also spent time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2015), Houston Texans (2015) and on the Carolina Panthers practice squad (2015). 

Kush was originally a sixth-round selection (170th overall) out of California (PA) by the Chiefs in 2013.
