"Uphill battle" for Fields to play Week 12

By Jared Smola | Updated on Mon, 22 Nov 2021, 4:45 PM EST

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says it'll be an "uphill battle" for Bears QB Justin Fields to play vs. the Lions on Thanksgiving. X-rays on Fields' ribs came back clean, but we're still waiting to hear the results from addiitonal testing being done today. Even if he avoided a significant injury, the quick turnaround to the 12:30 pm ET kickoff on Thursday will make it tough for the rookie to be ready. For now, plan on QB Andy Dalton starting that one.
