Will rookie Grasu start at center?

Wondering about a player, a past game or another issue involving the Bears? Senior writer Larry Mayer answers a variety of email questions from fans on ChicagoBears.com.

With Will Montgomery injured, is it safe to assume that we will see the debut of third-round pick Hroniss Grasu Sunday when the Bears face the Chiefs?

I think it’s pretty safe to assume that rookie center Hroniss Grasu will be active for the first time as an NFL player Sunday in Kansas City. But it remains to be seen whether the Bears will start Grasu at center or stick with the lineup they used after Will Montgomery broke his fibula on the third play of the game against the Raiders (Matt Slauson at center and Patrick Omameh at left guard).
