After falling 27-24 to the Atlanta Falcons, Justin Fields was carted off the field at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. He had been seen earlier in the game receiving treatment on his hamstrings, and as the game ended, his left shoulder was clearly causing him pain.
Fields had been riding a remarkable run coming into Atlanta. But his statistical achievements weren't translating into wins. Coming into the game, Fields was 0-5 on the year when he had the opportunity to rally the Bears to victory from a tie or a one-possession deficit.
The Falcons passed on Fields in the 2021 draft to select tight end Kyle Pitts, who was also injured on Sunday.
