Bears rookie Justin Fields has 3 passes in NFL’s best throws of Week 9 video

Bears rookie Justin Fields was slinging it against the Steelers.

After some expected rookie growing pains, Bears quarterback Justin Fields finally had his breakout game against a talented Steelers defense on Monday Night Football, and there were plenty of impressive plays made by the young QB.

Fields averaged 15.6 air yards per attempt, according to ESPN Stats & Info, and his seven completions of 15-plus yards were tied for the most by a Bears quarterback over the past 15 seasons.

The NFL has compiled the best throws of Week 9, where Fields had three of his impressive completions make the video montage. Those included a 28-yard completion to tight end Jimmy Graham down the seam, his 39-yard sideline pass to receiver Allen Robinson and the 16-yard touchdown pass to receiver Darnell Mooney in the corner of the end zone.

While Fields has had his highs and lows, he’s taken a huge step forward over the past two games, where he’s flashed his ability to make plays with his arm or legs and in moments that are never too big for him.

The Bears have a bye this week, which means we won’t get to see what he does next on Sunday. But that doesn’t mean he’s stopped training during his break, as he’s been spotted working out with former Bears receiver Brandon Marshall.

Chicago hosts Baltimore on Nov. 21, where Fields will get a chance to continue to make progress in his rookie development while facing Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.
