Chicago Bears Week Ten Cornerback Report
How did the Chicago Bears cornerbacks look in their week 10 matchup with the Detroit Lions
Like every week, we will go through each quarterback attempt against the Bears and put into context who he was targeting and how that player responded.
Kyle fuller allowed three receptions for 49 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown was to Kenny Golladay. Golladay got Fuller to hesitate, thinking he was cutting inside. However, Golladay then faded into the corner of the end zone for a wide open score. He also lose one battle with Marvin Jones, but overall had a great day.
Kyle Fuller: 3-6, 49 yards One Touchdown
Season to date: 29-58, 456, Five Touchdowns, Four Interceptions 7.9 yards per target
In recent weeks teams have targeted Fuller and Amukamara has been spared targets. After Fuller was elite against the Bills, the Lions decided to give Amukamara a try instead. It had relative success, as Amukamara did give up six receptions. However, he did a good job of limiting the yards per target, and came down with an interception when tested deep.
Prince Amukamara: 6-11, 63 yards, One Interception
Season to date: 23-42, 312 One Touchdown, Two interception, 7.4 yards per target
Callahan had another strong day in coverage. He continues to lead the three in yards per target allowed. Even the long reception he gave up was in zone and was questionable to be considered his.
Bryce Callahan: 4-7, 31 yards, One interception
Season to date: 29-41 287 yards, three Interceptions, 7 yards per target
Sherrick McManis saw some time and gave up two late receptions in garbage time. Those are not a big deal.
