Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields now favored to land with AFC contender in blockbuster trade

Rumors continue to persist that the Chicago Bears will trade quarterback Justin Fields at some point during the NFL Scouting Combine later this month.

Fields, 24, is coming off his third consecutive uneven season since Chicago made him the No. 11 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. The Bears are expected to use the top pick in this year’s draft on former USC Trojans quarterback Caleb Williams, making Fields expendable in the grand scheme of things.

Whether Fields will have a market as a potential starter on the trade block remains to be seen. He’s accounted for a mere 40 touchdown passes in 38 career starts with Chicago boasting a 10-28 record during that span.

Even then, Field’s dual-threat ability (2,220 rushing yards, 14 TD) and high-upside ability makes him an intriguing option on the trade market.
