Justin Fields Headshot

Bears HC Matt Nagy told reporters Tuesday morning that QB Justin Fields will start the 3rd and final preseason game and play about 2 quarters. Don't get too excited, though.

Even with Dalton still on track to open the season, it's just a matter of time before Chicago shifts to its new franchise QB.
