The most underrated aspect of the #Bears’ roster going into 2026 is their secondary.
They got faster at safety by bringing in Dillon Thieneman and Coby Bryant. Their versatility will give Dennis Allen the ability to disguise coverage looks and keep offenses guessing.
Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon missed a combined 24 games last year. That’s a really low bar of health to reach to have a bigger impact in 2026.
I’m confident Jaylon and Kyler both play more games than last year, and having them in the lineup is an upgrade over what the Bears had in the secondary last year.
I have some concern about the other outside CB spot, but you have Tyrique Stevenson in a key contract year, and I’m a big fan of the Malik Muhammad pick. Between the two of them, I think you better play on the perimeter.
Wait so let me get this straight:
-Garrett Bradbury has played with Thuney in college
-Didn’t allow a single sack in 1,070 snaps
-Not a single penalty in 2025
-And a top tier pass blocker in the league
We got that for a 5th round pick.
