BREAKING NEWS: The Chicago Bears are criticized by C.J. Stroud in regards to Justin Fields.

After perhaps his best rookie QB performance to date, C.J. Stroud had an incredible first season. Justin Fields, his former teammate for the Ohio State Buckeyes, is coming off yet another inconsistent season.

The careers of the two quarterbacks are taking different turns, and if the Chicago Bears decide that Fields will be the first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Fields might soon be playing for a different team.

In any case, Stroud is not happy with the Bears’ handling of their newly selected first-round quarterback.

C.J. Stroud suggests that the Chicago Bears made a mistake by benching Justin Fields.

In just under two months, the 2024 NFL Draft will take place. It’s likely that by then, we’ll know the Chicago Bears’ plans, since trade talks involving Justin Fields are anticipated to intensify during next week’s NFL Scouting Combine.

The two quarterbacks, C.J. Stroud and Fields, will always be linked because they both attended Ohio State and were selected in the first round. Throughout their playing careers, the two players will surely be compared to one another, even if their play styles are very different.

However, it’s also become evident that the two value each other greatly. The most recent proof was revealed in a recent interview with Stroud, in which he basically conceded that the Bears are foolish.

All the Texans quarterback could do was giggle as the host handily offered an explanation for why the Bears might be eager to forget about Stroud. “You said it, not me,” he said.

Which player should the Bears draft—Caleb Williams or Josh Fields? The argument is never resolved, but Stroud has expressed his opinions.
