In the absence of Theo Benedet (quadriceps), Trapilo will start at left tackle against the Steelers on Sunday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Trapilo -- the Bears' second-round selection in the 2025 NFL Draft -- was unable to win a starting spot out of training camp. However, he will make his first regular-season start Sunday due to Benedet's injury and with Braxton Jones (knee) on injured reserve.
