quarterback Justin Fields will not play in the season finale against the Minnesota Vikings, coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday.
Fields will end the season just 63 yards short of breaking the quarterback rushing record of 1,206 set by Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson in 2019 during his MVP season. Fields has been one of the few bright spots for a rebuilding team in its first season under Poles and Eberflus. The Bears set a franchise record by extending their skid to nine games and matched one with their 13th loss in a 41-10 blowout at Detroit on Sunday. The only team with a worse record than Chicago is Houston .
In his second season since being drafted 11th overall, Fields has completed 60 percent of his passes with 17 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.All the news you need to know, every day
