return to primetime on Thursday Night Football (November 9) against the Carolina Panthers (+3), and there’s also a chance they’ll have their starting quarterback return to the lineup.
Earlier today, at his postgame press conference, head coach Matt Eberflus was asked about Justin Fields and his injured thumb, and Flus said Fields is “day to day” and they’ll know more tomorrow. With a short week, the Bears won’t have a regular practice, but Fields was limited on November 3 at Halas Hall, which was the first time his grip strength allowed him to throw the football since dislocating his thumb.
