Personally I think Jonah will do well at RT, he played some seasons there in college and his weaknesses are better masked on the strongside where Burrow can see more easily.
You are correct they did and that’s why he is coming here. The Bears wanted him but only as a right tackle, the chiefs did not want to keep him at left tackle after seeing him play there and wanted to move on from the experiment and move him back to right tackle. There was an article that went out before free agency that said he wouldn’t get the contract that he was seeking because talk around the NFL teams didn’t like or view him as a left tackle. So hopefully they are open to moving him to right tackle his position of strength if he doesn’t pan out at left tackle and don’t force things if he struggles. Because that’s how this can become a negative signing instead of being a positive signing and playing him where he can be a major asset.
