"When injuries sidelined fellow cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon, the Bears needed Stevenson to stabilize one side of the secondary. Instead, Stevenson delivered mixed results. There were moments when the 25-year-old cornerback flashed. Strong outings against the Dallas Cowboys and Las Vegas Raiders early in the season showed the physical press corner that Chicago's front office envisioned when they used a second-round pick (56th overall) in the 2023 NFL Draft on the University of Miami product."
"Tyrique Stevenson started all 30 of the games he appeared in as a pro in his first two season's in the league. Even though Stevenson still started 10 games, he lost defensive snaps down the stretch and finished the year appearing on just 71 percent of the team's defensive plays. When the dust settled on the season, Stevenson finished with 49 total tackles, 10 pass breakups, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, one interception, and a tackle-for-loss in the 13 games he played."
Tyrique Stevenson was asked to stabilize the Bears' secondary after injuries to Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon but produced inconsistent coverage throughout 2025. He posted strong early performances against Dallas and Las Vegas but failed to sustain that level weekly. Stevenson started 10 games, played in 13, and took 71 percent of defensive snaps late in the year. He compiled 49 tackles, 10 pass breakups, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, one interception and a tackle-for-loss. Opponents targeted him 57 times, catching 33 passes for 512 yards (15.5 yards per catch). Pro Football Focus gave him a 64.4 grade (52nd of 114).
