ANALYSIS
Borom was a fifth-round pick by the Bears in the 2021 Draft, and he started 27 games across four seasons with the team. Borom mostly played tackle in Chicago, but the offensive line-needy Dolphins could also give him a look at guard. Borom shouldn't be counted on as a Week 1 starter in Miami.

Hurts ankle in preseason finale
Borom suffered an ankle injury in Thursday night's preseason win over the Chiefs, Scott Bair of the Bears' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Coach Matt Eberflus said Borom will need further evaluation. In three seasons with the Bears, Borom has appeared in 39 games, making 23 starts, but the 2021 fifth-rounder is expected to handle swing tackle duties this season behind starters LT Braxton Jones and RT Darnell Wright.

ANALYSIS

Officially ruled out
Borom (illness) will not play Monday against the Vikings, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
ANALYSIS

Unlikely to suit up Monday
Borom (illness) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Vikings, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Bears would lose significant offensive line depth if Borom is unable to play Monday. Ja'Tyre Carter would figure to be the next man up at offensive tackle if Braxton Jones or Darnell Wright were to sustain an injury.

Gets in full practice Tuesday
Borom (knee) was a full participant at practice Tuesday ahead of Saturday's game versus Buffalo.
ANALYSIS
After missing Chicago's last two games, Borom appears to be on track to play in Week 16. With Riley Reiff (illness) missing practice Tuesday, the 2021 fifth-rounder Borom was most likely taking reps with the first team and could continue to do so for as long as Reiff remains to sick for football activities.
Dec 18, 2022
Won't play vs. Eagles
Borom (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game versus Philadelphia.
ANALYSIS
Borom will miss a second consecutive game as he recovers from a knee injury he sustained in Week 12 at the Jets. Riley Reiff will probably start at right guard for Chicago in Borom's absence.
Dec 2, 2022
Won't face Packers
Borom (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Borom suffered the injury during the Bears' Week 12 loss to the Jets. He was unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week, so it's no surprise that he has been ruled out. Borom's absence will cut into some of Chicago's depth at tackle.
Nov 28, 2022
Dealing with injury
Borom suffered an ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the Jets, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Borom was filling in for Riley Reiff who had exited with a shoulder injury. With both tackles looking questionable for Sunday against Green Bay, Teven Jenkins could find himself starting opposite Braxton Jones in Week 13.
Nov 4, 2022
Cleared for Week 9
Borom doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
After not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, Borom cleared concussion protocols and submitted a full practice Friday, putting him in line to suit up Sunday following a one-game absence. Borom figures to reclaim his spot at right tackle against Miami.

Won't play at Dallas
Borom (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Borom will miss his first game action of the season with a concussion he presumably sustained during Chicago's win at New England in Week 7. Riley Reiff will likely step in as the Bears' starting right tackle as long as Borom is out.
Oct 26, 2022
Did not practice Wednesday
Borom (concussion) did not practice Wednesday due to a concussion, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS

Dec 22, 2021
Removed from COVID-19 list
Borom was activated off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Borom missed the team's 17-9 loss to the Vikings on Monday, but he has cleared protocols and is expected to be available for Week 16. However, he's expected to operate in his usual backup role as Teven Jenkins and Germain Ifedi will likely be Chicago's starting offensive tackles against the Seahawks on Sunday.
Dec 16, 2021
Lands on COVID list
The Bears placed Borom (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
ANALYSIS

Activated from injured reserve
Borom (ankle) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie fifth-round pick suffered the ankle injury in the season opener but has now returned to the active roster. Borom should operate as a reserve offensive tackle for Chicago now that he's healthy.
Oct 27, 2021
Designated to return from IR
Borom (ankle) has been activated off injured reserve and will return to practice Wednesday, Adam Hoge of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
ANALYSIS
Borom's return to practice starts the 21-day period for him to be added to the active roster. If he isn't, then he will revert back to injured reserve for the remainder of the season. Hoge reports that head coach Matt Nagy didn't rule the rookie out for Week 8, so there's a chance he could be available for the Bears when they face the 49ers on Sunday.
Sep 18, 2021
Lands on IR

Sep 17, 2021
Out Sunday
Borom (ankle) will miss Sunday's game against the Bengals.
ANALYSIS
Borom left Sunday's opener with an ankle injury after starter Jason Peters suffered a quadriceps injury early in the game. With the Bears' offensive line depth quickly shrinking, Chicago may need to rely on Elijah Wilkinson to protect Andy Dalton's blindside against the Bengals.

Second LT hurt for Chicago
Borom (ankle) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Borom had been filling in at left tackle for Jason Peters, who suffered a quadriceps injury earlier in the game. Chicago's depth at left tackle is quickly depleting, as the Bears will likely turn to backup right tackle Elijah Wilkinson on the left side at this point.

ANALYSIS

Sidelined in practice
Borom (concussion) was held out of practice on Friday, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
It remains to be seen how long the offensive lineman will be out with a concussion. The rookie won't want to miss too much time as it could put his spot on the roster in jeopardy.
