CHICAGO — Bears quarterback Justin Fields proved to be every bit the dual-threat nightmare the Detroit Lions anticipated, but despite a stellar day with his feet, a critical error with his arm opened the door for the Lions to complete a 14-point fourth quarter comeback at Solider Field on Sunday.
The Lions scored three touchdowns in the fourth quarter, the final coming on a 1-yard run by Jamaal Williams that capped the comeback and 31-30 victory. That followed a 21-yard interception return by cornerback Jeff Okudah earlier in the quarter, capitalizing on one of the few mistakes Fields made all day.
A week after setting the NFL's single-game record for rushing yards at his position, the elusiveness of Fields showed up on the first snap against the Lions as he kept a zone-read and ran around the left edge of the formation for a 28-yard gain.
