Chicago is looking to fill two starting jobs in the secondary, including at cornerback following the release of veteran Prince Amukamara, who was a cap casualty. Cornerback has been one of the most anticipated position battles this offseason, and the Bears are looking to find two-time Pro-Bowler Kyle Fuller’s running-mate in a shortened time frame than they would’ve had otherwise.

While CFL star Tre Roberson is no longer in the mix — he suffered a broken foot training for the upcoming season — second-round rookie Jaylon Johnson will be looking to win the starting job over veterans Kevin Toliver and Artie Burns. Johnson is an instinctive and athletic corner that could no doubt make an impact in his rookie year, although the absence of the offseason and preseason could hurt him.
