He’s our future…. We have 0 chance of any playoff games this year …. Can’t afford to loose him for nex year

I think Justin should sit out the rest of the year. It’s not as if the Bears are going anywhere this year. Bears owners and management should WANT to protect their investment until the Bears can offer him some protection on the O line and get him some receivers who can catch and know how to create some separation on broken pass plays. If he continues to have to run… in the NFL, I doubt he will last very long physically.

I think the BEARS should shelf Fields till at least after bye week . Then see if he heathy enough to play. If not put him on hold till next season. Look the Bears aren’t going anywhere.

Face it Bear's season is OVER. We finally get a good quarterback and the coaches are risking a serious and possible a coureer ending injury.Wake up this is what happens when you have no offensive line and now no defense.

If he is healthy enough to play, he should play. He'll almost certainly not be 100%, but the measure to pay attention to is whether or not he is risking making the injury worse or causing a problem that lingers beyond the end of this season.
It's not about winning these next few games, but it is about continuing to establish Fields as the unquestioned leader (and sitting out because of discomfort does not do that when everyone else is playing with pain at this stage of the season), but more importantly, he needs all the time he can get for continued development, as does the whole offense. Shutting him down now means starting next season basically where they're at now, and that's not good enough.
So, two qualifiers...1) He's not risking long term health/more serious injury; and 2) Getsy works on developing the passing game and doesn't just run Fields 25 times a game. He already has that down.

Please don't play him, let him heal and be ready for next year!!! Justin is too valuable to waste on some meaningless games. He has brought this whole Chicago team together, cheer the team on from the sidelines.

No No No there is no need for him to play sit this one out and do some more recovering

At this point in the Bears season, what would be the point? Leave him out until he's sufficiently recovered. If that's the rest of the season, so be it!!
