If Fields cannot play, the Bears will start veteran Trevor Siemian in his place. While the 3-8 Bears might not have much to play for, Fields missing time would be a disappointment. After a mediocre rookie season, Fields has taken the league by storm in 2022, with 1,642 passing yards and 13 TDs. On the ground, Fields has been elite with 834 rushing yards and 7 TDs.
