Chicago Bears rising star Justin Fields confirmed he hurt his shoulder on the first play of his final drive in Sunday’s 27-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. While he was still able to finish the game — which consisted of one more run play, then an interception — his status remained up in the air through the team’s postgame press conference.
Now, one day later, Bears head coach Matt Eberflus shared that his star quarterback, a rare bright spot in a 3-8 season, is going to miss some time. Maybe a few days of practice. Or maybe the rest of the season, he’s not quite sure.
