If Dozier can return to action from an undisclosed injury that landed him on injured reserve on June 21, he will likely provide depth at guard, though he could push Sam Mustipher for the starting role. Before signing with the Bears this offseason, Dozier spent his first four years in the league with the Jets before playing for the Vikings for the last three seasons.
