To begin the Chicago Bears’ 19th day of training camp, coach Matt Nagy shared some news in his morning press conference about the team’s final preseason game against the Tennessee Titans.
“We’re going to start Justin for that game,” Nagy said. “I think it’s going to be a good opportunity for him and we’ll be selective across the board for the other players as we go. …”
That was the news many Chicago Bears fans were hoping to hear. But the reason for Fields being named the starter is because Andy Dalton will not play in the preseason finale since he will be Chicago’s Week 1 starter against the Los Angeles Rams.

Nagy said that Fields will “probably play two quarters,” and he will get reps with some of the Bears’ starters.
