Justin Fields Runs For 104 Yards In Return
1 year agoChicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields made his return after a four-game absence due to a thumb injury. In the team's 31-26 loss to the Lions, Fields completed 16-of-23 passes for 169 yards and notched a passing touchdown. The former Buckeye displayed his dual-threat capability by rushing 18 times for an impressive 104 yards on the ground. Despite an unexpected run-heavy game script, Fields excelled, particularly on the ground, taking advantage of the Bears holding a lead for a significant portion of the game. This performance marked his third consecutive game with a 20-point fantasy output when playing the entire game. Looking ahead to Week 12, the Bears are set to face the Vikings, a team that has allowed the ninth-most points per game to quarterbacks this season. Fields, with his ability to produce regardless of the game script, stands as a strong starting option, thanks to his elite rushing upside.
