Bears Draft Review: When will Justin Fields play?

Call me in three years … no two years — or better yet, Week 6 of the 2021 season. Justin Fields obviously is the key to this draft. Until we see the results, Pace gets a solid A for attacking the Bears needs as well as he possibly could — a potential Russell Wilson-type of game-changing quarterback in Fields and a Week 1 starter at tackle in Teven Jenkins. Four years ago, Pace’s first two picks were Mitch Trubisky and Adam Shaheen. Enough said.

How many games will Justin Fields start in 2021?

None. The Bears will meander through the 2021 season with Andy Dalton being good enough to keep the job and the offense won’t be near the disaster it was in 2017 when Mike Glennon was benched after four games.
