Coach Ben Johnson had no update Wednesday, saying “nothing official has been decided yet." The Bears (0-2) host Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
“I don’t see him being out there here this week, and hopefully we’ll have some clarity here in the near future,” Ben Johnson said.
Jaylon Johnson exited a blowout loss at Detroit on Sunday after he was hurt breaking up a pass. He said Monday in his weekly appearance on WSCR-AM that the groin “as a whole just needs to get repaired” and that he was “trying to see what’s the best option.”
Johnson missed training camp, the preseason and the season opener because of a groin injury. But he said he suffered a new one, in a different part of that region, against the Lions.
It happened early in the second quarter of a 52-21 loss, when he broke up a pass intended for Amon-Ra St. Brown. He stayed on his stomach after lunging to make the play.
Johnson previously injured his groin in what he recently described as a “freak accident” while working with some receivers in Las Vegas over the summer. He said he partially tore the adductor muscle from the pelvic bone, and he did not start practicing until the week leading up to the season-opening loss to Minnesota. ___
