The Chicago Bears lost their fourth straight game in a 27-24 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons. But it wasn’t the loss that hurts the most. It’s an injury to their most important player.
Quarterback Justin Fields suffered a left shoulder injury on Chicago’s final drive. On a designed QB run, Fields was tackled out of bounds and landed on his left shoulder. He was in visible pain on the sideline, although he did finish the game. Fields ran the ball again — on another designed QB run — before throwing an interception to halt any hopes of a comeback.
