Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson will have groin surgery and could return to the team by the end of the season, coach Ben Johnson said Monday.
Jaylon Johnson was put on injured reserve Saturday, six days after suffering a serious groin injury in Detroit. He must miss at least four games while on IR, and figures to need more time than that, but the team isn’t ruling out a potential return late in the season.
Johnson missed the entirety of training camp after tearing the adductor muscle off his pelvic bone while working out at UNLV in July.
