It\u2019s not a matter of ‘if’ Justin Fields starts for the Chicago Bears, rather when. Will it happen this season? That remains to be seen. Since we only officially have <\/span>Matt Nagy\u2019s word<\/span><\/a> to base things off of, he won\u2019t get the starting nod when week one rolls around. But things can change fast in the National Football League. And as the days go by, the calls for Justin Fields starting are only going to grow louder and louder.<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, many Chicago Bears fans, analysts, and football personas have already started championing Justin Fields starting on week one. NFL broadcaster Cris Collinsworth is on that side of the discussion as <\/span>he claimed in a recent podcast<\/span><\/a> that Fields would start if he was the head coach. Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on if you agree with him or not, that title belongs to Matt Nagy. Will he give in to the hype and chatter and let Fields loose? Or will he keep his young prospect on the bench for the majority of the season \u00e0 la Patrick Mahomes-style?<\/span><\/p>\n
