The Chicago Bears got some much-needed good news this week — Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon could be back sooner than expected 👀. Head coach Ben Johnson said both are progressing well, which would be a MASSIVE boost for a defense still trying to get healthy as Chicago sits at 6-3 and in the thick of the NFC playoff race.But that wasn’t the only headline. Caleb Williams continues to silence every critic, earning the highest PFF grade of any quarterback in the NFL over the past two weeks (91.1). In that span, he’s thrown for 500 yards, 4 TDs, no picks, and led two comeback wins — including his “Iceman” moment vs. the Giants.Johnson’s relationship with Williams continues to evolve, and his quote said it all: “He makes us right.” Williams’ mobility and poise give Johnson something he never had with Jared Goff — a QB who can turn a broken play into a highlight.As the team hits the midway mark, Johnson reflected on what’s next: closing games cleaner, reducing drops, and finally putting together a full 60 minutes of football.

The Chicago Bears aren’t slowing down. With injuries piling up in the secondary and a culture shift taking hold under head coach Ben Johnson, Chicago is pushing forward — and now they’re set to host Asante Samuel Jr. for a visit next week.

The Chicago Bears didn’t make the big splash fans were hoping for — but they did make the move they needed.
