Per KOAColorado’s Benjamin Allbright, the Indianapolis Colts have been speculated as a potential trade suitor for Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields, assuredly as a top backup to 2nd-year quarterback Anthony Richardson next season:
Wouldn't be surprised if Justin Fields winds up as a backup with the Colts or Eagles.
Several teams that were being reported were never in play, and the market has been incredibly thin on him as the Bears have shopped him for a few weeks.— Benjamin Allbright (@AllbrightNFL) March 11, 2024With the #1 overall pick in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft—and with a regime that isn’t tied to Fields, the Bears have been widely projected to select USC quarterback Caleb Williams—meaning the former Ohio State standout’s days in Chicago are presumably numbered.
