Bears dispute report of 8-10 week absence for Coby Bryant

sports.yahoo.com

Chicago Bears safety Coby Bryant suffered a left knee injury at Monday's practice, leaving the team uncertain about his return despite an external report of an 8-10 week absence. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Bryant has a hyperextended knee, bone bruise, and small fracture. Coach Ben Johnson disputed that timeline, saying the team is still "information gathering" and will announce details when confirmed. If the reported timeline holds, Bryant could return between Weeks 3 and 5. Veteran Cam Lewis has filled in at safety alongside rookie Dillon Thieneman. No update was given on Kyler Gordon's recovery.
