Chicago Bears Jaylon Johnson’s corner half aggravated the groin injury that limited it during the offseason and faces a prolonged absence, which assesses bad news for the worst defense of the NFL.
The quarter-backs finish 75% of their passes against the Bears (0-2) in two weeks with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys.
ESPN reported that Johnson was “indefinitely” and that the Bears evaluate the gravity of the injury.
Johnson, the n ° 1 corner half on a defense of Chicago for 39.5 points per game and 7.15 yards per game for two weeks, did not play in the first match against the Vikings and left the defeat of week 2 to Detroit after having plunged to break a pass intended for Amon-Ra St. Brown. Johnson stayed on the lawn at Ford Field after the whistle and was helped by the team’s coaches.
Last week, Johnson described the severity of the injury that limited him throughout the off -season to the “The Pivot” podcast, saying that he had torn his addictive muscle of the pelvian bone. He was on the list of non -football injuries in the training camp and said that the injury had taken place during training.
Like Johnson, the second TJ Edwards was not available due to week 1. He also left the defeat of 52-21 against the lions with an hamstiff injury.
The Bears also died in last allowing 9.75 yards per game and differential differential (17 per game). They authorized 10 affected in two games.
Prescott completes 68.6% of its passes (59 out of 86,549 yards) for cowboys (1-1) in an offense which includes large Ceedee Lamb and George Pickens and a tight wing Jake Ferguson.
Johnson, 26, was the 50th choice in total in the 2020 draft. He signed a contract extension of $ 76 million over four years with the Bears in March 2024.
Edwards achieved 129 plated and four bags last season in 17 games.
