Bears' CB Jaylon Johnson is out indefinitely due to a groin injury
"In Week 1, the Bears lost 27-24 to the Vikings in a game they easily could have won. However, the defense collapsed, allowing 21 points in the fourth quarter to Minnesota. Chicago was on the road in Week 2 to face the Lions. The Bears allowed Detroit to score 52 points compared to Chicago's 21. Lions QB Jared Goff had five passing touchdowns."
"In the second round of the 2020 NFL draft, the Bears selected CB Jaylon Johnson out of Utah. The 2025 season is his sixth year with Chicago. Ahead of the 2024 season, the Bears signed Jaylon Johnson to a four-year, $76 million max contract extension. Last season, Johnson started all 17 games for Chicago. He finished with two interceptions, eight passes defended, one forced fumble, 53 combined tackles, and 11 tackles for loss."
"Jaylon Johnson missed all of the Bears' training camp and preseason due to a groin injury. Additionally, he did not play in their Week 1 matchup vs. the Vikings. However, Johnson was back on the field in Week 2 vs. the Lions. In the second quarter, Jaylon Johnson broke up a deep pass intended for Amon-Ra St. Brown. Soon after, Johnson left the field and did not return."
Chicago lost Week 1 to Minnesota 27-24 after the defense allowed 21 fourth-quarter points. In Week 2 the Bears were routed by Detroit 52-21 as Jared Goff threw five touchdowns. Cornerback Jaylon Johnson exited the Week 2 game with a groin injury and did not return. Sources report Johnson, 26, is out indefinitely while the team evaluates the injury and whether surgery is necessary. Johnson was a 2020 second-round pick and is in his sixth season with Chicago under a four-year, $76 million extension. Last season he started all 17 games with notable tackles and pass defenses.
