The Chicago Bears finally took center stage on Day 2 of the 2022 NFL draft, where they had three selections between Rounds 2 and 3.
The Bears drafted Washington cornerback Kyler Gordon (39th overall), Penn State safety Jaquan Brisker (48th) and Tennessee wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (71st). All three selections addressed important needs for Chicago.
New Bears general manager Ryan Poles was pleased with the additions of Gordon, Brisker and Jones on Day 2.
“We are excited,” Poles said, via ChicagoBears.com. “Today went really well. We added three players that I know are going to help our team get better. They’re going to improve our team and the playmaking, they’re going to improve our team in the locker room and the culture that we’re trying to build. So, anytime you kind of hit that trifecta of these players improving different areas of your organization, you’re excited about that.”
