The week could not go fast enough as every Chicago Bears Fan is eager to see how Justin Fields fares in his second preseason game on August 21 versus the Buffalo Bills at Soldier Field.
But it’s not just Fields that needs to demonstrate growth, there are plenty of Bears at every single position that’s either fighting for depth chart position, or for many, a roster spot.
Expect to see more from the Chicago Bears starters on Saturday.
Coach Matt Nagy mentioned that the Chicago Bears will give their starters more playing time compared to last week. Plus, the team has been able to get healthy with multiple starters returning to practice this week.
For the second straight week, all eyes will be on Fields. That’s a given. However, there are plenty more items of high importance where attention is warranted. But what are they? That’s exactly what The Chicago Audible crew breaks down in this episode from starters to third-stringers in all three phases.
This podcast episode shares everything you need to know heading into Saturday’s game.
Can guys like Alec Ogletree, Artie Burns and Rodney Adams continue to make compelling cases?
Will Jason Peters prove to be an instant upgrade at left tackle despite limited practice this week? Does he even play?
