"LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Bears nickel cornerback Kyler Gordon, who was limited in his first practice Wednesday since going on injured reserve for a second time this season, is being factored into the gameplan for Saturday's wild-card game against the Packers. Gordon was designated to return from his second injured reserve stint of the season on Monday after missing Chicago's last four games with a groin injury."
"The Bears signed Gordon to a three-year, $40 million contract extension in April 2025, but multiple soft tissue injuries have limited the former second round pick to just three games this season. He missed a significant portion of training camp and Weeks 1-4 with a hamstring injury, was placed on injured reserve in Week 8 after sustaining calf and groin injuries in practice and then had a second IR stint after injuring his groin in pre-game warmups at Green Bay in Week 14."
Kyler Gordon practiced in a limited way Wednesday after being designated to return from injured reserve, and he is being factored into the Bears' gameplan for Saturday's wild-card game against the Packers. Gordon missed Chicago's last four games with a groin injury and had earlier stints on injured reserve after calf and groin injuries. A three-year, $40 million extension was signed in April 2025, but soft tissue injuries limited him to three games this season. Gordon missed training camp and Weeks 1-4 with a hamstring injury, was placed on IR in Week 8, and sustained a groin injury in pregame warmups in Week 14. His return provides another playmaking option amid concussion protocol for the current starter and illness for a reserve nickel.
