The Chicago Bears benched cornerback Tyrique Stevenson for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Rapoport reported that this is a “one week” demotion resulting from Stevenson taunting fans and being slow to react to Jayden Daniels’ Hail Mary pass to give the Washington Commanders a win over Chicago in Week 8.
