Bears Say Kyler Gordon’s Groin Injury Puts His Return This Season in Doubt

Ben Johnson labeled the cornerback’s status “to be determined” after he was injured in warmups before the Packers game.

Overview

  • Kyler Gordon suffered a groin injury during pregame warmups at Lambeau Field and did not play in the 28-21 loss to Green Bay, which ended Chicago’s five-game winning streak.
  • Head coach Ben Johnson said the injury “didn’t look very good” and would not commit to Gordon returning this season.
  • Gordon has been limited to three games in 2025 after multiple lower-body injuries, including time on injured reserve.
  • The Bears are expected to lean more on C.J. Gardner-Johnson in the nickel role, though he is coming off a game in which he allowed multiple big plays.
  • Chicago hosts the Browns this weekend before a rematch with the Packers in two weeks as the team manages ongoing uncertainty in the secondary.
