The Chicago Bears will be without cornerbacks Kyler Gordon and Jaylon Johnson for their upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Neither player was activated from injured reserve, ruling them out for Sunday’s match.
Injury Reports on Key Players
Kyler Gordon is sidelined due to a calf injury, while Jaylon Johnson is recovering from a groin issue. Both players were listed as questionable prior to the game but will not participate.

Roster Adjustments
To fill the void left by the injured players, the Bears made several roster moves:
- Signed running back Brittain Brown to the active roster.
- Signed linebacker Carl Jones Jr. to the active roster.
- Elevated tight end Nikola Kalinic for the game.
- Elevated offensive lineman Jordan McFadden for the game.
These adjustments reflect the team’s ongoing strategy to manage injuries while remaining competitive in the league. The Bears will look to leverage their depth against the Steelers on Sunday.
