Bears add versatile lineman depth with minimal risk in UDFA signing. Multiple film study pieces highlight Kump's positional flexibility across the offensive line. College production at Utah shows competence but lacks star-level dominance or athleticism. Fans view this as typical low-cost roster-building, not a game-changer for struggling line. Kump projects as camp competitor and practice squad candidate rather than immediate starter.
