2021 Bears Draft Pick Larry Borom Signs With Rival Lions
"Larry Borom was part of the final NFL Draft class pieced together by Ryan Pace as the Bears' general manager. The Mizzou product played 47 games in Chicago from 2021 to 2024. Borom started 27 games during that four-year stretch, taking snaps at every position on the offensive line except for center."
"After his four-year run with the Bears ended after the 2024 season, Larry Borom signed a one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins. And for what it's worth, Borom did enough to play in 16 games and make 11 starts. His Pro Football Focus grades (60.7 overall, 67.1 pass blocking, 54.4 run blocking) were nothing to write home about."
"That offensive line looks nothing like the world-beaters we saw in 2023 and 2024 when that group was setting the tone in front for then-offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. Given the changes that are happening in Motown, I can see a path to Borom starting."
Larry Borom, a Mizzou product drafted by the Chicago Bears in 2021, has agreed to join the Detroit Lions as free-agent offensive line help. Borom played 47 games for Chicago from 2021 to 2024, starting 27 games across multiple offensive line positions except center, demonstrating versatility. After his Bears tenure ended, he signed with the Miami Dolphins for the 2025 season, appearing in all 16 games with 11 starts. His Pro Football Focus grades were modest, but the Lions are acquiring a 26-year-old Detroit native. The Lions' offensive line has declined significantly from its dominant 2023-2024 form, creating potential starting opportunities for Borom.
