Chicago Bears are making a strong push for Lamarr Houston

Bears have Jay Cutler’s back
The early issues were well documented. Jay Cutler needed some protection and the Bears went out and got him just that.
Jermon Bushrod was brought in from the Saints last year to protect Cutler’s blindside. Bushrod signed a five-year, $35 million contract to come to Chicago.
