Justin Fields’ First Public Comments Since Trade Directed At Ryan Poles

The Chicago Bears ended the Justin Fields era in March, trading the former 1st round pick to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a conditional 6th rounder in 2025. It was a sad end to a run that felt headed in the right direction at various points over the past two years. Fields showcased his rare running ability in 2022. Then, last year, he seemed to make tangible progress as a passer down the stretch. Sadly, it wasn’t enough to justify passing on a quarterback at #1 overall for the second straight year.
