3 years agoChicago Bears quarterback Andy Dalton (knee) is not expected to be placed on injured reserve. In fact, the veteran signal-caller has a chance to return as soon as Week 4. This situation is truly perplexing as Dalton's injury seems like the perfect time to pass the torch to Justin Fields. Instead, the rookie will start on Sunday but return to the bench once Dalton is healthy again. Between Week 1 and part of Week 2, Dalton completed 36 of 49 attempts for 262 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Despite head coach Matt Nagy's refusal to make a permanent change, Fields is the quarterback to roster in this offense rather than Dalton.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller
