Bears’ best defensive players in Week 6 loss vs. Vikings, per PFF

The Chicago Bears (1-5) were defeated by the Minnesota (2-4), 19-13, on Sunday, which marked the team’s 15th loss in the last 16 games. The team also hasn’t won a home game since Sept. 25, 2022.

While Chicago’s defense did its job — allowing a season-low 19 points — the offense never found a rhythm and mustered just 13 points after averaging 34 points in the past two games. To make matters worse, quarterback Justin Fields suffered a dislocated thumb that’s expected to keep him out for a little bit.

Pro Football Focus handed out player grades for those who took a snap in the Chicago’s Week 6 loss. Here are the highest-graded Bears defensive players and what their grades were.
