With their second pick in the second round of the NFL Draft Friday, the Bears chose Utah cornerback Jaylon Johnson with the 50th overall pick.
Johnson was a two-time first-team All-Pac 12 selection at Utah, where he played in 38 games with 29 starts the past three seasons and recorded 102 tackles, seven interceptions—two of which he returned for touchdowns—21 pass breakups and one sack. The 6-foot, 191-pounder's best year was 2018 when he set career highs with 41 tackles and four interceptions.
Last season Johnson earned second-team All-America honors. He started 13 games, ranking third in the Pac-12 with a team-leading 11 pass breakups.
