(670 The Score) The Bears have placed rookie offensive tackle Larry Borom on the reserve/COVID-19 list, the team announced Wednesday.
Like many other NFL teams, the Bears are dealing with growing virus concerns, with Borom being their sixth player to currently land on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Nose tackle Eddie Goldman, defensive lineman Mario Edwards Jr., tackle Elijah Wilkinson, cornerback Artie Burns and practice squad linebacker Sam Kamara are also on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
A fifth-round pick of the Bears last spring, Borom has started the last six games at right tackle. It wasn't immediately clear who would start in Borom's place if he's unable to play against the Vikings on Monday night.
In another move Wednesday, the Bears signed defensive back Thakarius Keyes to their practice squad.
