According to the wiki, the Bears' Kyler Gordon suffered a soft tissue injury during preseason workouts this offseason and missed much of that time heading into training camp. As of the latest news from July 28, 2026, GM Ryan Poles and head coach Ben Johnson were openly frustrated by the injury, with Johnson saying "trust level is a huge thing... and you can only develop that trust by being available."
However, the wiki doesn't specify a concrete return timeline — no "out X weeks" or specific PUP designation is mentioned. Given the frustration from the coaching staff and his history of missing significant time in 2025, it sounds like this could be a lingering issue that may keep him sidelined into the early part of the regular season.
