One of the biggest mysteries of the upcoming NFL offseason is the future of Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields.
Fields is under contract through next season and has a fifth-year option for 2025, but the Bears currently hold the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NFL draft, and with it, the right to draft top quarterback prospect Caleb Williams out of USC. Should the Bears choose to take that route, it would mean Fields is on the move.
The Atlanta Falcons have emerged as one of the favorites to land the Kennesaw, Ga., native in a potential offseason trade if the Bears decide to move on from Fields, and he doesn’t sound opposed to the idea.
