"Stevenson sustained a shoulder injury in Chicago's 26-14 win over the New Orleans Saints and did not finish the game. He did not practice this week and is considered "day-to-day, week-to-week," according to coach Ben Johnson, who also gave the same designation to tight end Cole Kmet, who has a back injury and will miss the first game of his career against Baltimore. Both Stevenson and Kmet will avoid injured reserve, according to Johnson."
"Gordon was a full participant in practice on Wednesday before injuring both his groin and calf in practice and being limited on Thursday. He was a non-participant on Friday before he was ruled out. Stevenson and Gordon's absences mean that the Bears will be without their three starting cornerbacks against the Ravens. Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson is out indefinitely while he recovers from surgery to his core muscle that he underwent in September."
The Chicago Bears will play the Baltimore Ravens without starting cornerbacks Tyrique Stevenson and Kyler Gordon, as both have been ruled out for Week 8. Stevenson left the Saints game with a shoulder injury, did not practice this week and is considered day-to-day, week-to-week; tight end Cole Kmet has a back injury that will sideline him for the first time in his career, though both players will avoid injured reserve. Gordon injured his groin and calf in practice and was ruled out after limited participation. Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson remains out indefinitely after core-muscle surgery. Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) practiced fully Friday and is listed as questionable; the Bears expect to prepare as if he will start. Chicago's defense leads the league with 16 takeaways.
