Justin Fields Faces The Starters Friday
3 years agoChicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields faced the team's starting defense at practice on Friday. The rookie quarterback did not throw to the Bears first-team offense but got his first real test against Khalil Mack and Co. The results were mixed, as Fields made an egregious error in the red zone and was picked off on a shovel pass by linebacker Roquan Smith. But Fields also connected on several excellent red zone throws, including one side-arm sling to rookie running back Khalil Herbert for a score. For every mistake Fields has made, he also has backed it up with elite-level throws as well. As of now, quarterback Andy Dalton is still projected to be QB1 in Week 1 for the Bears.
