Justin Fields Will Start Against Packers
Justin Fields (ribs) has been cleared and will start this Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers. Fields was limited in practice all last week, but Chicago was playing it safe and held the first-rounder out for a second straight game. Now that he's been cleared medically, the Bears will throw him back into the starting role after veteran Andy Dalton threw four interceptions in the Week 13 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Fields has had his fair share of struggles, too, in his first 10 NFL games (eight starts). In his eight starts, the rookie has completed 58% of his attempts for 1,291 yards, four touchdowns and seven interceptions. He's also rushed for a score and taken 29 sacks. Returning from a two-week absence on Sunday night at Lambeau won't be easy. Fields will be a low-end QB2 in his return.
