Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields is in his third season in the NFL. The young quarterback showed flashes during his first two years in the league.

However, the first couple games of the 2023 season have been turbulent for Fields. In Week 1, Fields threw for 216 yards with one touchdown against one interception. The Green Bay Packers also managed to sack Fields four times. This past Sunday, Fields threw two interceptions and was sacked six times.
