The Chicago Bears have traded quarterback Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers, ending the speculation about the Bears' QB future. Fields will join the Steelers' quarterbacks room, with the Bears receiving a potential fourth-round pick in 2024 if he plays 51 percent of the snaps, otherwise a sixth-round pick in 2025.

The traded — it’s a sentence that we’ve known has been coming for months but still seems unfathomable. Nearly three years ago, the Bears drafted Fields and the city fell in love with its quarterback. Now, with the team set to pick its next quarterback No. 1, and with Fields not performing at a high enough level — for many, many reasons — general manager Ryan Poles found a trading partner. He moved on. Advertisement Fields will and join in their quarterbacks room.

Fishbain: Will Fields be the Steelers’ starting quarterback in 2025 when they come to Soldier Field to play the Bears?

We also saw that he wasn’t the type of quarterback who could consistently elevate those around him.
