The Chicago Bears re-signed offensive lineman Eric Kush to a two-year contract on Wednesday.

Kush, 27, was claimed off waivers from the Los Angeles Rams after the 53-man roster cut downs just prior to the start of the 2016 season, adding depth to the Bears' offensive line. He started a career-high four games out of eight contests with the Bears.

The 6-foot-4, 313-pound Kush appeared in 18 career games (five starts) in his four-year NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs (2013-14), Rams (2015) and Bears. He also spent time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Houston Texans and Carolina Panthers.

Kush originally entered the NFL as a sixth-round pick of the Chiefs in the 2013 NFL Draft out of California University of Pennsylvania.
