Bears urged to make surprising roster cut to begin NFL offseason

Jaylon Johnson, Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears are heading into the 2026 NFL offseason looking to make one final aggressive push to be a Super Bowl contender next year.

During the 2025 NFL season, the Bears took a huge leap in the right direction. After years of being an afterthought in the NFC, Chicago was a contender.

When all was said and done, the Bears won the NFC North division and entered into the playoffs as the No. 2 seed in the conference. In the Wild Card round of the playoffs, Chicago was able to pull off a stunning upset win over the Green Bay Packers to advance to the Division Round. Unfortunately, their season ended there at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams.

Despite the disappointing end to the season, the Bears are clearly on the right track.

Heading into this offseason, the team will face some difficult decisions. One of those decisions will be about the future of cornerback Jaylon Johnson.

Chicago Bears Urged to Part Ways With Jaylon Johnson

Da Windy City’s Nick Halden has urged the team to start of the NFL offseason by cutting Johnson. He thinks it’s time for the two parties to part ways.

“The veteran defender needs to prove not only that he can stay healthy, but also that he is the same player Chicago watched early in his tenure, when he does take the field. There is enough doubt that this is the case to justify the move to save $16 million and give the franchise the chance to find an upgrade.”

Johnson played in just seven games during the 2025 NFL season. He recorded 17 total tackles, an interception, and two defended passes.

Throughout the course of his six-year and 77-game career with the Bears, the 26-year-old cornerback has racked up 231 total tackles, four forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, 17 interceptions, a defensive touchdown, and 51 defended passes. When he’s healthy, he’s one of the best cover cornerbacks in the NFL.

Moving on from him now could end up being a major mistake. If Johnson gets back to full health and plays up to his potential, another team will be very thankful that Chicago gave up on him. However, it’s possible that the Bears could make the decision to move on.
