DETROIT — Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson, who missed all of training camp with a groin injury, hurt his groin in his first game of the season Sunday.

Johnson fell to the ground after breaking up a third-down pass and laid on the Ford Field turf, facedown, for two minutes before eventually walking off the field with a trainer. He went to the blue injury intent and then to the locker, Johnson was replaced by cornerback Nahshon Wright, who started the season opener, on the next drive.
