Bears cornerback Johnson on Top 100 snub: ‘Ain’t no way’

Chicago Bears CB Jaylon Johnson gave a 1-word response to share with the world how he feels about the National Football League’s Top 100 list.

“Bulls—,” the cornerback claimed today.

Jaylon, who earned 2^nd-team All-Pro honors and a Pro Bowl bid after turning in a career-best campaign in the last year, was omitted from the list, which is voted on by the players each season. The CB voiced questions over the selection process and pointed to his achievements from 2023 as worthy of being named one of the NFL’s top 100 footballers.

“It’s bulls—,” the CB shared. “There ain’t no way. I don’t know how you are selected to be at the Pro Bowl, All-Pro, and not [be] a Top 100 player. I could’ve been 101, I guess, but goddamn, NY Jets QB Aaron Rodgers didn’t even play in the campaign, and he made the list.”

Only 2 Chicago footballers were picked in the list – WR Keenan Allen, who is ranked No. 51, and DE Montez Sweat at No. 82.
