Chicago Bears Re-Sign Offensive Lineman Doug Kramer to One-Year Deal

The versatile backup returns as part of a revamped offensive line under new head coach Ben Johnson's leadership.

Doug Kramer, a Chicago-area native and Illinois alum, has signed a one-year contract to remain with the Bears.
Kramer has played in 18 games for the team, including 16 last season, after missing his rookie year due to injury.
The Bears have significantly upgraded their offensive line by adding Joe Thuney, Jonah Jackson, and Drew Dalman.
Kramer is expected to serve as a backup on the revamped line, offering versatility with his experience at guard, center, and fullback.
New head coach Ben Johnson, known for creative offensive strategies, may explore unconventional ways to utilize Kramer's skill set.
