The Chicago Bears hoped Justin Fields would be the answer to the franchise's longstanding quarterback woes, but that responsibility has been passed on to rookie Caleb Williams.
Justin Fields and Caleb Williams will be forever linked. The Chicago Bears selected Fields in the first round in 2021. He would go on to spend the first three years of his NFL career in Chicago. This past March, that same franchise decided to trade Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for a conditional sixth-round draft pick in 2025. Just over a month later, the Bears used the first overall draft pick on Williams.
Fields helped lift the Steelers to an 18-10 victory over the Falcons in Atlanta. Last week, Fields threw one touchdown and avoided turning the ball over in a game against the Denver Broncos to help Pittsburgh improve to 2-0 on the season. Meanwhile, Williams' final stat line after his NFL debut was largely forgettable. The Bears scored 24 points, which was enough to defeat the Tennessee Titans, but Williams finished the day with just 93 passing yards and no touchdowns. Williams delivered another pedestrian performance on Sunday night as the Bears suffered a 19-13 loss to 2023 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans. Fields dealt with similar issues during his stint with the Bears.
God, to be honest, because I've seen how he's worked in my life in those moments,' Fields told Fox News Digital when he reflected on changing schools and joining a new NFL team. 'Just in life for anybody, we all come up with ideas in our heads of how we want certain things to play out, and that might not always be God's will. He things in a different way, and it turns out better than you could ever imagine.
