Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson played Sunday’s game in pain after missing parts of two practices with an oblique injury.
On a crucial play in the fourth quarter, Johnson was in coverage on perhaps the Lions’ most important pass play. On third-and-eight with 3:14 to play, quarterback Jared Goff completed a 44-yard pass to receiverTom Kennedy. His catch, the longest of his career, put the Lions at the Bears’ 14. They scored two plays later to take the lead.
