The Bears offensive line was already a mess coming into Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. Now, midway through the game, it’s even worse.
Reserve tackle Jason Spriggs, who entered the game as a replacement for an injured Bobby Massie, left the field in the second quarter due to an apparent knee injury. Spriggs walked off under his own power, according to 670 The Score’s Chris Emma.

Spriggs, who signed as a free agent this offseason, was injured on a drive that resulted in a field goal from kicker Cairo Santos to put the Bears up 13-3 near the end of the second quarter. His status for the game is not yet known, although Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune says Spriggs was on the sideline.
#Bears RT Jason Spriggs standing on sideline – but on opposite side of field where team will get kickoff. We'll see if he returns in the 3rd qtr.
