Despite being established in 1920, the storied Bears franchise has never produced a quarterback that has thrown for 4,000 yards in a single season.
While appearing on the All Things Covered podcast, starting signal-caller Justin Fields was asked if he will be the first Chicago quarterback to reach the plateau. Despite only averaging 2,056 passing yards in his first two seasons, the dual-threat talent believes he will make team history this upcoming season.
“The Bears have been around for 100 years. They’ve never had a quarterback to throw for 4,000 yards. We believe you are going to be in Chicago for a long, long time. Will you break that record?”, asked host Bryant McFadden.
