With the Chicago Bears completing the majority of their offseason moves, it is a good time to look back at the depth charts across all of the positions. What does the cornerback depth chart look like?
Chicago Bears post-draft cornerback depth chart
Jaylon Johnson
Johnson missed time last year due to an injury, but is expected to be healthy and hold down the top cornerback spot this season.
Tyrique Stevenson
Stevenson has been in and out of the hot seat and up and down on the fans' favorite players list. With Nahshon Wright out of the mix, he is likely to start week one. The question is whether he can hold down the job or if frustrations continue.
Kyler Gordon
Gordon is coming off an injury-filled year. When he is healthy, there are not many slot cornerbacks better than him, so the team will hope that he can stay in the lineup this year.
Malik Muhammad
Muhammad fell in the draft because he is a bit undersized. The team is looking to move him to the slot. Wherever he winds up, it is unlikely he will be starting by week 1.
Terell Smith
Smith missed all of last season, but was progressing in the two years before that. The question will be whether he can get back on the field in a crucial contract year.
Josh Blackwell
Blackwell has been the Bears' backup slot. He could hold the role down again this year, but if the Bears intend to fully shift Muhammad inside, he could be in trouble.
Jaylon Jones
The Bears signed Jones as a UDFA and then cut him. After he spent some time in Arizona, he is back to attempt to make the roster. He does bring some special teams potential and might make the roster due to that.
Dallis Flowers
Flowers has bounced around the NFL but stuck around the Bears last year and even got called up to their active roster. Still, he might not be sticking on the active roster this year.
Dontae Manning
Manning was a UDFA in 2025 who started with the Atlanta Falcons but spent all of last year on the practice squad. With how deep the room is, he might be in the same spot.
KC Eziommume
The rookie UDFA from Tulane will be competing to find a role on the roster. His best path is progressing through the practice squad.
