The Chicago Bears are an offensive-dominated team with head coach Ben Johnson at the helm, but is the defensive line a sleeping giant for defensive coordinator Dennis Allen?

When the Chicago Bears signed CB Kyler Gordon to a 3-year, $40M extension in 2025, they made him the highest-paid slot corner in the NFL.
