Unavailable for Week 14
Gordon suffered a groin injury in warmups and has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Packers, Adam Jahns of AllCHGO.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon made his return to action in Week 13 after missing five contests with a groin injury, and he has now potentially aggravated the previous issue. In his absence, Nahshon Wright and Jaylon Jones will stand to operate in more significant roles in Chicago's secondary.

Active for Black Friday game
Gordon (calf) is active for Friday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Gordon was activated from injured reserve Thursday and will make his first appearance since Week 7. He missed the first five weeks of the season with a hamstring injury, so Friday will be Gordon's third appearance of the 2025 campaign. He should return to covering the slot for Chicago.

Activated off IR
The Bears activated Gordon (calf), who remains questionable for Friday's matchup against Philadelphia, off injured reserve Thursday.
Analysis: All signs point to Gordon returning to action against the Eagles, but that may not be certain until Chicago releases its list of inactives about 90 minutes before Friday's 3:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If Gordon does get cleared to play, he could start at outside cornerback since Tyrique Stevenson has been ruled out for Friday due to a hip injury.

Officially questionable for Friday
Gordon (calf) has been deemed questionable to play against Philadelphia on Black Friday.
Analysis: Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Thursday that Gordon is expected to be activated for Friday's battle, and that could certainly be the case, but for now he is officially questionable. He's still on IR and will need to be activated by Thursday afternoon in order to suit up against the Eagles. Gordon has played in only two games this season, as he also missed the first four contests of the campaign due to a hamstring issue.

Set to be activated
Gordon (calf) is in line to be activated from injured reserve in time for Friday's game against the Eagles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The cornerback practiced in full Wednesday, so he appears to be good to go. Gordon has only appeared in two games this season while dealing with lower-body injuries. The 2022 second-round pick played on at least 60 percent of the defensive snaps in each of the games he did suit up for, and he started 13 of the 15 contests he appeared in a year ago.

Won't return this weekend
Gordon (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 12 game against Pittsburgh and will remain on IR for the time being.
Analysis: Gordon has been on injured reserve due to a calf issue since Oct. 25. He was designated to return Wednesday and logged an LP/LP/FP practice progression this week, but he's not yet ready to suit up for game action. The Bears have a short week with their next game set for Black Friday versus Philadelphia, which may have played a part in the decision to hold out Gordon for Sunday.

Returning in Week 12?
Gordon (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.
Analysis: The Washington product upgraded from limited practice Thursday to a full go Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. However, he must be activated to the Bears' active roster in order to suit up in Week 12. If Gordon returns Sunday, he'll likely operate as one of Chicago's top slot defenders.

Logs limited practice Wednesday
Gordon (calf) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Gordon practiced for the first time Wednesday since being placed on Chicago's injured reserve list ahead of Week 8 at Baltimore, so it's not a big surprise he wasn't back up to full speed. Unless he can upgrade to full participation at practice Thursday or Friday, he'll probably end up carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Analysis: The Washington product has missed Chicago's last four games due to groin and calf injuries, but it now appears he's nearing a return.

Analysis: Gordon has been cleared to make his 2025 regular-season debut Monday after logging a full practice Saturday. The 2022 second-rounder has been working through a hamstring injury from the offseason, so he may be deployed in a rotational role in the secondary in his return.

Analysis: Gordon did not play in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings in Week 1 after being a late addition to the injury report Saturday with a hamstring injury. The cornerback had a previous hamstring issue that sidelined him for a chunk of time during the preseason, and it's possible that he aggravated the issue late last week.

Posts 75 stops in 2024
Gordon tallied four solo tackles in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon posted between four and seven tackles in all but one game this season, and his 75 total tackles (48 solo) across 15 games in 2024 were four more than his previous career high. After picking off five passes in his first two seasons, the cornerback failed to secure any this season. Gordon will go into the last year of his rookie deal, and he should remain a low-ceiling IDP unless he can outperform his career norms.

Gordon tallied six tackles (three solo), defensed a pass and recovered a fumble he forced himself in Thursday's 6-3 loss to Seattle.
Analysis: Gordon stood out on defense in the low-scoring affair. His most impactful play came late in the third quarter, when he forced a Pharaoh Brown fumble and recovered the ball himself.

Solid tackle total
Gordon tallied seven stops in the Bears' 20-17 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon has posted at least four tackles in eight of his last nine games, and he should remain a solid-floor weekly IDP during the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.

Season-high tackle total
Gordon recorded eight tackles in the Bears' 16-13 win over the Panthers on Thursday.
Analysis: Gordon has posted between four and eight tackles in each of his last five games, and he should continue to be a high-floor IDP going forward.

Comes off IR
The Bears activated Gordon (hand) from injured reserve ahead of their Week 6 contest versus Minnesota, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gordon injured his hand Week 1 against Green Bay and was subsequently placed on IR. He logged limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday this week before ascending to a full practice Friday, setting the stage for him to return to face the Vikings on Sunday. Gordon should reclaim his role as Chicago's starting right cornerback for that matchup.

Could play vs. Vikes
Gordon (hand) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game versus Minnesota.
Analysis: Although he still hasn't technically been activated from Chicago's injured reserve list, it seems Gordon has a good chance to return from a four-game absence in Week 6. If available, he'd probably step back into a sizable role at corner right away Sunday.

Slated for return
Gordon (hand) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gordon suffered a broken hand Week 1 that required surgery, but after spending the minimum of four weeks on IR, the second-year corner will return to practice this week. He now has a 21-day window to work with the team before he must be added to the active roster or spend the rest of the season on injured reserve, and he could return as soon as Sunday against the Vikings.

Undergoes hand surgery
Gordon underwent surgery on his broken hand Thursday, Adam Hoge of AllCHGO.com reports.
Analysis: According to Hoge, the team's hope is that Gordon will be able to return in Week 6 after he misses the required four games on injured reserve. With fellow CB Josh Blackwell (hamstring) also injured and doubtful for Week 2, the Bears will be dipping deep into their cornerback depth chart against the Bucs.

Moves to IR
Gordon (hand) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports.
Analysis: Gordon has been unable to practice since suffering the injury in Sunday's loss to the Packers. The second-year pro will now be forced to miss at least the next four games while he recovers. In his absence, Terell Smith and Greg Stroman will be candidates to see extra work in the secondary.

Still dealing with injury
Gordon (hand) will not practice Wednesday, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gordon exited Sunday's loss to the Packers with the injury, and he appears to still be feeling the effects of it. He'll try and get back on the practice field Thursday with a matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday looming.

Won't return Sunday
Gordon has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Packers due to a hand injury, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon recorded a solo tackle and a pass defense to begin Sunday's matchup, but he was ruled out for the remainder of the matchup at the start of the fourth quarter. It's unclear whether he'll be forced to miss additional time, but Tyrique Stevenson and Terell Smith could see increased playing time for the remainder of Sunday's game.

Settling into slot role
Gordon has had a strong training camp, and he projects to be the Bears' starting slot corner, Adam Jahns of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gordon struggled as a rookie, playing on the outside in 2022. However, he has been outstanding this summer, and seemingly faces little competition for a starting role defending the slot.

Embracing nickel position
Gordon said Wednesday that he's fully embracing a role as the Bears' nickel cornerback in 2023, Mark Grote of 670TheScore.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon had a successful rookie campaign, posting 71 tackles, three interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. He rotated between the slot and outside cornerback spots last year, but he looks like he'll be playing primarily inside in Year 2, meaning that rookie second-round pick Tyrique Stevenson may be the favorite for the starting spot opposite Jaylon Johnson. Moving inside will likely put Gordon in positions to make more impact plays, which should bode well for his IDP production.

Inactive in season finale
Gordon (groin) ended the season with 71 tackles, three interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 14 games played.
Analysis: After being selected in the second round of the 2022 Draft, Gordon had an excellent rookie season. He averaged 5.1 tackles and also picked off three passes. Aside from two games in which he didn't record a tackle, he had at least three stops in the rest of his games. He seems to be a player on the rise and may quickly become one of the top IDP players at cornerback as early as 2023. He's under contract through 2025.

Not playing Sunday
Gordon (groin) is inactive Sunday against the Vikings.
Analysis: Gordon popped up on the team's injury report Thursday and closed out the week with back-to-back limited practices. His absence will leave the team down a starting corner, and also lead to extra opportunities for Breon Borders and Harrison Hand.

Considered questionable
Gordon (groin) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
Analysis: Gordon landed on the injury report Thursday as a limited participant due to a groin injury and remained limited Friday. However, he'll still have a chance to suit up Sunday. Jaylon Jones (concussion) has already been ruled out, so Chicago may be without two of its top cornerbacks for the regular-season finale.

Intercepts third pass of season
Gordon picked off a pass and posted five tackles in the Bears' 35-13 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon now has three interceptions over his last seven games, though his tackle numbers have been inconsistent over the last four weeks, as he's posted between zero and eight tackles over that span. His inconsistency makes him a volatile weekly IDP option.

Shines in return to action
Gordon intercepted a pass and added four tackles in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon missed Chicago's last two games due to a concussion, and he recorded his second interception of the season. In terms of tackles, he's been inconsistent, with as few as zero in multiple games and with as many as 10. His low scoring floor makes him a risky IDP option.

Listed as full participant
Gordon (concussion) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Gordon missed back-to-back matchups due to a concussion, but he cleared protocols during the team's Week 14 bye and is on track to suit up Sunday against the Eagles. The rookie second-round pick has recorded 55 tackles, four pass defenses, one interception and one forced fumble across 11 appearances.

Clears concussion protocol
Coach Matt Eberflus said Monday that Gordon cleared concussion protocols during the team's Week 14 bye, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis: Gordon missed back-to-back games due to a concussion heading into the Bears' Week 14 bye, but the extended time off appears to have been beneficial. While it appears the rookie second-round pick will suit up Sunday against the Eagles, his official status likely won't be known until Chicago releases its first Week 15 injury report sometime Wednesday.

Gordon (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Green Bay.
Analysis: Gordon continues to deal with a concussion and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game. He'll have an additional week to rest since the Bears have a Week 14 bye, and his next chance to take the field will be Dec. 18 against Philadelphia.

Still working through concussion
Head coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday that Gordon remains in concussion protocol and is considered day-to-day ahead of Sunday's game against the Packers, Carmen Vitali of Fox Sports reports.
Analysis: Gordon was sidelined during Chicago's Week 12 matchup versus the Jets due to a concussion that he sustained the week prior. If the rookie is eventually sidelined for a second consecutive contest, Jaylon Johnson, Jaylon Jones and Kindle Vildor would be slated to command the team's cornerback duties this weekend against Green Bay.

Won't play at Jets
Gordon (concussion) is listed as out for Sunday's game at the Jets.
Analysis: Gordon will miss his first game of the 2022 season with a concussion he presumably sustained in Week 11 at Atlanta. In the rookie second-rounder's absence, Jaylon Jones should be in line for an expanded role at corner against a Mike White-led Jets passing offense.

In concussion protocol
Gordon didn't practice Wednesday due to a concussion.
Analysis: Gordon presumably suffered the concussion during the team's Week 11 loss to the Falcons, as he played a season-low 37 defensive snaps. He'll have two more opportunities to practice before the Bears needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Jets, but if he's sidelined, Kindle Vildor and Jaylon Jones would be candidates for increased roles opposite Jaylon Johnson.

Tallies eight stops
Gordon recorded eight tackles in the Bears' 35-32 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: Gordon had posted a total of three tackles over his prior two games, and his eight-tackle performance against Miami was his second-highest total of the season. Before his recent inconsistency, he had posted at least four tackles in his first six games. He now should be considered a volatile IDP option going forward.

Cleared for Sunday
Gordon doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Gordon was a limited participant during practice Wednesday and Thursday due to a hip issue but upgraded to full participation Friday and has been cleared for Sunday. The rookie second-round pick has totaled 40 tackles, one interception and one forced fumble while playing nearly every defensive snap across eight games.

Posts first career interception
Gordon picked off a pass in the Bears' 33-14 win over the Patriots on Monday.
Analysis: After collecting at least four tackles in each of his first six games, Gordon did not record a single tackle, and his only contribution to the stat sheet was a big one- the rookie's first interception. It would seem that his failure to record a tackle is an outlier in IDP leagues, and he'll likely continue to have a solid scoring floor in most games.

Season-high tackle total
Gordon recorded 10 tackles in the Bears' 29-22 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Especially in the first half, the Vikings threw the ball often, resulting in high tackle totals for Gordon and other Chicago defensive backs. Going into this game, he had posted between four and six tackles in each game. Although his production appears to be an outlier, it shows he possesses ceiling to go with a solid scoring floor.

Solid in pro debut
Gordon tallied six stops in the Bears' 19-10 win over the 49ers on Sunday.
Analysis: Although the 49ers posted just 13 completions, Gordon led the Chicago defensive backs in tackles. Playing across from Jaylon Johnson, it's possible that opponents choose to attack Gordon often, which could lead to him posting strong tackle totals over the season.

Lining up in multiple spots
Gordon is rotating between the slot and outside cornerback spots during practices, Alyssa Barbieri of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Although there's no guarantee that Gordon moves around during the regular season, when the Bears have put a third cornerback on the field, Gordon has moved into the slot on occasion. When he moves to the slot, Kindle Vildor lines up on the outside, and when Gordon lines up outside, Tavon Young has been in the slot. Regardless of where Gordon is positioned on the field, it seems that he'll be an every-down player as a rookie, giving him the potential to be a solid IDP contributor.
