NFL Notes: Bears, Dolphins, Panthers, Redskins

Bears

• Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports that the Bears are in the process of moving Kyle Long to left guard and Josh Sitton to right guard for the 2017 season.
• As of now, Long is still rehabbing his ankle injury and is not expected to take part in the start of OTAs this week.
• However, the Bears would like to move Long to the left side where they could make better use of his athleticism.

Dolphins

• Multiple sources tell Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald that WR DeVante Parker is the most improved Dolphins’ player.

• Eli Montague – area scout
