Bears' Justin Fields rushes for touchdown in Week 2 loss to Packers
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields completed 7 of 11 attempts for 70 yards and 1 interception with 8 carries for 20 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in Week 2's 10-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers.
What It Means:
Through two weeks, Fields has attempted just 28 passes, with the Bears opting for an extremely run-heavy approach against the San Francisco 49ers and the Green Bay Packers. While Fields' passing volume is troubling, he is a key part of the Bears' ground game, with 19 carries for 48 yards and a touchdown so far this season. After back-to-back games as underdogs, Fields and the Bears enter Week 3 as 2.5-point favorites over the Houston Texans, providing the sophomore with a chance to bounce back.
Fields Week 3 projection includes 191.0 passing yards, 1.15 passing touchdowns, 0.64 interceptions, 40.8 rushing yards, 0.44 rushing touchdowns, and 17.4 FanDuel points. His salary is $7,000, and he is the QB11 in numberFire's Week 3 projections.
