Would Jaylon follow Dionte into the slot? Has Jaylon truly been shutdown this year? Do QBs avoid him?

Probably not, but Diontae doesn't play in the slot much - only 18.6% of snaps per PlayerProfiler

IDK how best to judge this, but I do know these are the recent lines of some WRs against Chicago

Jordan Whittington - 6 for 62
Tutu Atwell - 4 for 82
Demarcus Robinson - 2 for 37
Michael Pittman Jr. - 4 for 36
Josh Downs - 3 for 22
Alec Pierce - 1 for 44
Nico Collins - 8 for 135, 1 tuddy
Stefon Diggs - 4 for 37
Tank Dell - 1 for -3 (woof)
Calvin Ridley - 3 for 50
Tyler Boyd - 3 for 18

Not much amazing there, but that's not exactly a murderer's row of passing offenses...Titans with Levis playing poorly and Hopkins banged up. Colts with Richardson looking awful. Then Rams with both Kupp and Puka out, plus multiple OL.

I would say that with the way they are feeding Diontae (27 targets last 2 games), it would be hard for me to sit him unless my other options were awesome. The jury is still out on the Bears passing defense IMO. I think Diontae will still get his.
