Ben Johnson dropped a major hint in wake of massive Bears injury news

It hasn't been an easy season for Chicago Bears starting nickel corner Kyler Gordon, but the Bears have officially opened his 21-day practice window as he returns from injured reserve.

In light of the Gordon news, head coach Ben Johnson was asked about Gordon's fill-in, C.J. Gardner-Johnson, who has played exceptional football since coming to Chicago.

Of course the Bears are going to get Gordon back out there, but as for Gardner-Johnson, the head coach simply called him "a guy we’re going to want on the field," while noting the playmaker he's been since joining the Bears.
