Bears Week 4 injury report: Several defensive backs held out Wednesday

The Chicago Bears released their first injury report ahead of Sunday’s Week 4 game against the Denver Broncos.

The Bears secondary is banged up with cornerback Jaylon Johnson (hamstring), safety Eddie Jackson (foot) and cornerback Josh Blackwell (hamstring) all sidelined for Wednesday’s practice with injuries. Cornerback Kyler Gordon (hand) is already on injured reserve.

The good news is cornerback Tyrique Stevenson (illness) was a full participant in practice, an indication he should be good to go for Sunday. He joins safety Jaquan Brisker as the only starting defensive back healthy.
