Justin Fields Trade Rumors: NFL Insiders 'Connect' Falcons to Bears QB Ahead of Draft

The Atlanta Falcons are reportedly a candidate to trade for Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields.

Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported many within the NFL "connect" Fields and the Falcons, who will be in the market for a new quarterback this offseason.

The Bears are expected to shop offers for Fields as they determine what they'll do with the No. 1 pick in April's draft. Smart money has been on Chicago resetting its quarterback contract clock and taking USC's Caleb Williams, which would make Fields fodder for a trade.

Fields has flashed potential over his first three NFL seasons but has not been able to emerge consistently as a passer.
