Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will return to the lineup on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. The second-year quarterback has no injury designation heading into the weekend after missing last week’s 31-10 loss against the New York Jets with a separate shoulder he suffered two weeks ago against the Atlanta Falcons.
Fields is good to go after getting in consecutive full practices and will look to help the Bears snap their seven game losing streak vs. Green Bay. “He’s been medically clear to play. He’s 100 percent.” Eberflus told reporters on Friday.
