Kline has played in every game this season and has performed admirably. He originally joined the team in 2013 as an undrafted free agent out of Kent State. He originally started out on the practice squad and worked his way up to the 53-man roster last season.

Josh Kline follows in footsteps of Tom Ashworth, Russ Hochstein, Ryan Wendell, Dan Connolly -- practice squad to reliable contributor on OL.
