One week after he was carted off a Halas Hall backfield with what sources said is a season-ending left knee injury, Bears guard Dakota Dozier was put on injured reserve Tuesday.
Signed to a one-year contract in March, Dozier was rotating at the right guard position with Sam Mustipher during offseason practices. Rookie Zach Thomas, a San Diego State tackle the Bears moved inside, saw playing time at guard over the final two days of mandatory minicamp.
