Bears hang on to beat Bengals, so is this Justin Fields' starting job now?

There’s a new chapter in the Andy Dalton-Justin Fields story for Chicago Bears fans to debate now.

The knee injury to Dalton has opened the door to Fields perhaps starting for the Bears — from here on out. It looked like Dalton suffered the injury on a run near the end of the first half, limping off the field afterward.

Dalton returned briefly before he was ruled out with a knee injury, preventing him from finishing off the revenge game against his old team. Instead, Fields took over down the stretch in the Bears’ 20-17 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.
