Chicago Bears cornerback Kyler Gordon works with personal trainer on injury recovery
Summary

Chicago Bears cornerback Kyler Gordon is currently working with a personal trainer away from the team to accelerate his recovery from a calf injury. The defensive player was placed on the physically unable to perform list during fall camp, requiring him to miss at least the first four games of the 2026 NFL season. Gordon appeared in only three games during the 2025 season due to a series of injuries involving his calf, hamstring, and groin. While his absence from the team facilities is a departure from standard procedure, the organization expects him to return to practice within the next few weeks. General manager Ryan Poles previously expressed frustration regarding the ongoing health setbacks for the former Washington Huskies star. When available, Gordon serves as a primary piece of the Chicago defense, particularly in nickel packages.
