Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson has reportedly requested a trade out of Chicago ahead of Tuesday’s trade deadline, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Johnson and the Bears had reportedly been negotiating a new contract, but those talks never led to anything substantial, prompting the organization to grant permission to the 24-year-old to seek out a trade.
The NFL trade deadline is at 4:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, Oct. 31, so any trade for Johnson would need to materialize quickly.
