Starting guard Nate Davis continues to miss practices at minicamp while healthy Bears left guard Teven Jenkins hasn't been able to interest the team yet with contract extension talks.

Considering where the Bears stand at guard at the moment, maybe looking a little more seriously at the Teven Jenkins contract extension might be a good idea for GM Ryan Poles.Asked Wednesday after minicamp about the contract situation heading into his contract year, Jenkins said, "Up in the air."

The situation on the line at right guard could very well be an issue going forward at some point, and Bears training camp comes early this year because of the Aug. 1 preseason game in Canton, Ohio. That is, unless Davis suddenly finds he can play. "Yeah, don't know yet," Eberflus said. "I really don't know. We'll see. We'll see how it goes. I'm just thinking through my head a bunch of multiple combinations. I really don't know exactly.

"Obviously we will have the medical meeting with Dre at the end of this whole process here, but again I don't know that for a 100%," Eberflus said. "I haven't heard that or foreseen that." "It shows me that I can still be a top-10 guard, left guard, right guard, Week 5, Week 6 over there," Jenkins said. "It shows I can still be versatile and it shows that I'm confident in myself."
