Bears sign sixth-round rookie OL Zachary Thomas

The Chicago Bears have signed sixth-round offensive lineman Zachary Thomas to his rookie contract, the team announced Monday.

Thomas was one of four offensive linemen selected on Day 3 of the 2022 NFL draft. Chicago has plenty of questions at offensive line, including a vacant starting job. While Thomas played mostly right tackle and left tackle during his collegiate career at San Diego State, the Bears will likely kick him over to guard, where it just so happens there’s currently a starting right guard job up for grabs.

The Bears previously signed fifth-round offensive lineman Braxton Jones and edge rusher Dominique Robinson along with sixth-round picks running back Trestan Ebner and offensive lineman Doug Kramer and seventh-round selections offensive lineman Ja’Tyre Carter, safety Elijah Hicks and punter Trenton Gill.

The only 2022 draft picks that remain unsigned are second rounders cornerback Kyler Gordon and safety Jaquan Brisker, as well as third-round wide receiver Velus Jones Jr.
