NFL Insider tells us which QBs the Bears are looking into for the 2024 NFL draft
As the Chicago Bears approach the end of the 2023 season, speculation surrounds the future of key team figures including head coach Matt Eberflus and quarterback Justin Fields. With a mixed record of success, Eberflus's position seems more straightforward. Despite winning six games over nearly two seasons, his defense's performance has been lacking. However, Fields presents a more complex issue. Showing flashes of high-level play, his recent performances suggest potential growth after a period of inconsistency.
ESPN Insider Dan Graziano reports that while the Bears are pleased with Fields' progress, there is still a possibility of a quarterback change if the current trajectory holds. Graziano even hinted at a potential new recruit in the 2024 draft, should the Bears secure the top pick through their trade with the Panthers.
The Bears' season now serves as a proving ground for Fields. If he can demonstrate significant improvement, he may retain his starting role. His recent statistics from trailing situations reveal a mix of promising talent and areas for improvement. With the Bears determined to avoid a repeat of their past quarterback challenges, as seen during the Jay Cutler era, the decision on whether to stick with Fields or move on will be critical. Discussions in the sports community also bring up Caleb Williams, a USC quarterback, as a potential draft target should the Bears decide to trade Fields.
The debate is fueled by varied opinions on social media, with commentators like Adam Jahns noting Fields' strong performance against Detroit, while others emphasize the need for consistent play under pressure. As the Bears weigh their options, they aim to find a lasting formula for success that has eluded them since the Cutler days. Meanwhile, Fields has the opportunity to sway the decision with his play in the remaining games.
