Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (ribs) has already been ruled out for Week 12. However, he is in danger of missing more time than initially expected.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Cam Newton is so good it's barely believable, and we can only thank the Panthers for handing him another chance (read: deal) to man Carolina's offense ROS after parting ways with him just a handful of months ago. No collusion is attached […]
