It sure would be a good time for Chicago Bears injured cornerback Kyler Gordon to return to the lineup.
The Bears are coming off a 19-16 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 18 and saw one of their starters, C.J. Gardner-Johnson, get hurt in the game with a concussion. With Gardner-Johnson now in concussion protocol, there are questions as to whether Gordon would be able to come back from his core muscle injury and get activated from the IR.
Bears head coach Ben Johnson gave an update on Gordon's status, saying Chicago is hopeful he will practice this week, which would leave the door open for him to play in the NFC Wild Card game against the Green Bay Packers.
