Podcast: Bears stare down franchise-altering quarterback decision

The Chicago Bears are in the midst of the franchise’s most important offseason in recent memory, where there’s one looming question that’s dominated discussion: What are they going to do at quarterback?

The Bears have the honor — and perhaps curse — of having the first overall pick for the second consecutive year. Which has prompted difficult questions and evaluations as general manager Ryan Poles decides whether to stick with Justin Fields or use the top pick on a quarterback.

According to a report, Chicago is finalizing their quarterback plans ahead of the NFL Scouting Combine next week. And they’ve already garnered trade inquiries about Fields.

At this point, all signs indicate the Bears will elect to trade Fields and start over with a rookie, most likely Caleb Williams, who some have called the best quarterback prospect of the past decade.

Host Ryan O’Leary (@RyanO_Leary) and Alyssa Barbieri (@AlyssaBarbieri) discussed the Fields-Williams debate, new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron and more during the latest episode of the Bears Wire Podcast!
