Cole Kmet has been extended. We’ve taken a look at what type of contract extensions Darnell Mooney and Jaylon Johnson could be receiving. But let’s jump in a year early and look at Justin Fields.
Fields is not eligible for a contract extension, but he will be in 2024. If Fields performs poorly this season, our Chicago Bears will almost certainly pivot away from Fields and select a new quarterback in the 2024 draft, but that’s a scenario that fans, and more importantly, Ryan Poles is not expecting.
The Bears have committed to Fields. They believe he will be coming into his own as a top-tier quarterback that will be able to lead this franchise to success.
