Bears' Justin Fields' Injury Update: Hopeful Return Within Next Four Games

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will not be placed on injured reserve despite a dislocated thumb on his right hand that will keep him out for multiple weeks. The team is hopeful that Fields will return within the next four games, and they value his importance to the team. Undrafted rookie Tyson Bagent will start in Fields' absence. The Bears, currently with a 1-5 record, are unlikely to be active at the trade deadline and are focused on developing their young players.
