Justin Fields trade could happen at NFL Scouting Combine

A Justin Fields trade could be coming sooner than later.

Sports Illustrated NFL insider Albert Breer appeared on ESPN 1000’s Kap and Hood Friday morning and said the Chicago Bears could strike a deal quickly at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine.

“I think the bones of the trade will be set next week,” Breer said. ‘There’s some urgency on the Bears part to get something done.”

Breer’s intel syncs up with the trending narrative around Fields, who unfollowed the Bears on Instagram before appearing on the St. Brown Brothers podcast this week, where he expressed his desire for the trade drama to be over.

While Fields tried to dismiss his Instagram unfollow as no big deal, the reality is it’s sent shockwaves through the Bears universe.
