Johnson, an essential part of the team's secondary and soon-to-be unrestricted free agent, has proven himself to be an elite player.

Johnson had an impressive 2023 season, earning his first Pro Bowl selection. He recorded a career-best four interceptions, including a pick-six, defended 10 passes, forced a fumble, and made 36 tackles (31 solo).

Johnson's performance as a cornerback, wearing No. 33 for the Bears, has been a significant factor in the team's defense. His talent is well-recognized by the Bears, which is crucial for a team that values defensive prowess.

With Poles' commitment to retaining Johnson, the Bears' defense looks to have a bright future. Johnson himself expressed optimism on Monday about reaching an agreement with the team.
