The Chicago Bears strengthened their secondary with the addition of Utah cornerback Jaylon Johnson with the 50th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Following the release of cap-casualty Prince Amukamara, the Bears were in search of a starting right corner to fill an important hole in the defensive backfield.
Chicago perhaps got an immediate starter in Johnson, who was an absolute steal in the second round for general manager Ryan Pace. The Bears appear to have found the running mate for Pro Bowler Kyle Fuller, which should make Chicago’s defense even more formidable.
