It was probably the longest 1-yard touchdown run in NFL history, also arguably the most spectacular.
Leave it to Justin Fields, who is blossoming big-time as a quarterback for the Chicago Bears.
Fields took a shotgun snap with the Bears on the Detroit 1 and had to use all of his guile to avoid the Lions’ rush.
He went here. He went there. Finally, Fields took off for the end zone and made it to paydirt.
Justin Fields has the most rushing yards by a QB over any 5-game span (Weeks 6-10, 2022) in the Super Bowl era.
He broke Lamar Jackson’s record of 473 rush yards from Weeks 6-11, 2019.#DaBears @ChicagoBears

Justin Fields has rushed for 50+ yards and a touchdown in 4 straight games, tying both Kyler Murray and Lamar Jackson for the longest such streak by a QB since the 1970 merger.#DaBears @ChicagoBears

The PAT was good and the NFC North teams were tied at 10 as the game went to halftime.
More @justnfields magic 🪄
