6 Bears players that regressed in 2019

There were plenty of players that contributed to the disappointment of the Bears’ 2019 season, but these six stood apart from the rest.

Since joining the Bears, cornerback Prince Amukamara has been a consistent player for Chicago. But like many players, Amukamara regressed in 2019. Only Amukamara’s struggles will likely be the end of his career with the Bears, given he serves to be the Bears’ top salary cap casualty this offseason.

In three seasons, Amukamara has three interceptions, all of which came in 2018. That, and blown coverages and killer penalties have cost the defense at times.

His production doesn’t warrant the $10 million he’s due to make in 2020, especially given the deep cornerback class in this year’s NFL Draft. If the Bears choose to part ways with Amukamara, they can free up $9 million in cap space.
