Justin Fields has a second touchdown pass in the season opener, this time fitting in a beautiful throw to Equanimeous St. Brown in the fourth quarter.
After falling behind 10-0 in the game, Fields has led the Chicago Bears all the way back for a 13-10 lead. While his first touchdown came on some wizardry in the pocket, Fields’ second score was much more conventional.
Fields faked a hand-off to begin play-action and then dropped back in the pocket. Chicago’s offensive line held and gave Fields room to step up.
He did and delivered a perfectly placed ball to St. Brown for the score:
Equanimeous St. Brown puts the @ChicagoBears ahead!

The extra point was missed, so Chicago is just clinging to a field goal lead early in the fourth. For now though, Fields looks off to a solid start to the 2022 season.
