The 6-foot-7, 331-pound Webb did not play in the NFL last year after being suspended by the league for the first four games of the 2017 season. ESPN reported that he was suspended for a violation of the league's substance abuse policy.

However, he has made 64 starts in his seven pro seasons, having played for the Seattle Seahawks (2016), Oakland Raiders (2015), Kansas City Chiefs (2014), Minnesota Vikings (2013-14) and Chicago Bears (2010-12).

He also started two postseason contests for the Bears in 2010.

His most recent NFL action came in 2016, when he played in nine games for Seattle and made three starts.

Webb, who turns 30 in August, was originally selected by the Bears in the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft out of West Texas A&M.
