Dennis Allen Reveals Plans For Kyler Gordon Are Bigger Than We Thought

One of the first players new Chicago Bears defensive coordinator Dennis Allen singled out as somebody he couldn’t wait to work with was Kyler Gordon. He felt the nickel cornerback had a unique skill set that would make him a great fit in the defensive system he planned to implement. So it probably wasn’t a surprise when the Bears worked quickly to lock the former 2nd round pick up to a contract extension. His role in the defense figures to be a prominent one moving forward. As it turns out, people might not be grasping how big.
