Chicago Bears defensive back Kyler Gordon will begin the 2026 NFL season on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list due to ongoing injury issues. Gordon, who missed all offseason workouts recovering from hamstring, groin, and calf problems, had a limited 2025 season where he played only three games. This marks a challenging start for Gordon in his second year under head coach Ben Johnson, who cited the importance of availability in building team trust. Gordon is under a three-year, $40 million contract extension and is expected to miss the first four games of the regular season.
