Faced with the option of going with No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams Harrison Barnes Jersey or sticking with Justin Fields, the decided to roll with the former, which led to Chicago trading Fields to the , where he is now serving as the backup to Ru sell Wilson to begin the 2024 campaign.Considering how Fields’ stint in Chicago went down, it came as zero surprise that the Bears went with the upside of Williams, who will also Nate Archibald Jersey be on a rookie contract for the next five years.But not helping Fields’ cause, according to a report, was the apparent lack of trust his head coach, Matt Eberflus, had in him late in games.According to , there are many people around the team who believe that Eberflus “didn’t trust” Fields as a pa ser, which impacted the Bears coach’s decision-making in the fourth quarter of games.”There are plenty of people around the team (media and non-media) who believe that many of Eberflus questionable decisions were made because he didnt trust Justin Fields to do the right thing with the football,” Zimmerman wrote. “On third-and Bogdan Bogdanovic Jersey -6 from the opponent’s 30, Eberflus was more comfortable running the football and settling for a field goal than risking a turnover on a pa s or a bad sack that knocks them out of field goal range.”Along with Fields, former offensive coordinator Luke Getsy was let go, also. When you add it all up, Cory Joseph Jersey it feels like the Bears are looking for scapegoats to justify Eberflus keeping his job despite an abysmal 10-24 record, but we can’t say for sure.Whatever the case may be, Fields is getting a fresh start in Pittsburgh and will look to revive his career in what is the final year of his deal. In order for that to happen, he’ll first need Wilson to falter and open Jason Williams Jersey the door for him to get the job. If not, the most Fields can hope for is seeing the field in special packages.
