The Chicago Bears were embarrassed by the Kansas City Chiefs, 41-10, where things quickly spiraled out of control. To make matters worse, Chicago lost a couple key starters in the process.
A depleted Bears secondary got thinner with cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Tyrique Stevenson exiting the game with injuries.

Johnson suffered a hamstring injury later in the second quarter. While he tried to play through it, he eventually was ruled out with a hamstring injury and was replaced by Jaylon Jones.
Even reserve nickel cornerback Josh Blackwell reaggravated a hamstring injury during the game.
The Bears were already without starting safety Eddie Jackson, who suffered a foot injury last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and nickel cornerback Kyler Gordon, who was placed on injured reserve two weeks ago with a broken hand.
Right now, Chicago’s secondary is in shambles.
