Jonathan Owens: Breaking News
Excels in second half of season
Owens recorded five tackles and a recovered fumble in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday. Owens was a non-factor through Week 11, when he had a total of three tackles. The safety moved into a regular role when teammate Elijah Hicks was injured. Once Hicks returned, Owens retained the starting job. In the last eight game, the veteran posted 46 tackles, an interception and a forced fumble. Owens is signed through 2025, and assuming he holds onto the starting role, he'll be a high floor IDP.
Ties for team lead in stops
Owens tallied eight stops in the Bears' 34-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday. Owens had been subbing in for teammate Elijah Hicks, who was inactive in Weeks 12-14. However, since Hicks returned in Week 15, Owens has remained in the lead role at strong safety. In each of the last five games, Owens has posted between six and eight tackles. As long as Owens hangs onto the starting job, he'll remain a high-floor IDP.
