Justin Fields Was 'Pissed' at Bears Game Plan in 1st Career Start, Private Coach Says

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields reportedly was not a fan of the game plan for his first NFL start, a 26-6 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sept. 26.

Ron Veal, who has worked as Fields' private quarterback coach since he was in the sixth grade, went on 670 The Score's Parkins & Spiegel Show (h/t Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk) on the topic.

"It was bad," Veal said.

"He took a beating that day. It was kind of crazy and weird at the same time. ... I know he was a little pissed about it but I didn't get an explanation.
