The Bears improved each position on the offensive side of the ball during free agency and the 2023 NFL Draft. Additionally, they traded for the outstanding wide receiver D.J. Moore from the Carolina Panthers, providing Fields a reliable throwing weapon.
During the 2022 NFL season, quarterback Justin Fields amassed an incredible 1,143 rushing yards, which placed him seventh among all players and first among quarterbacks. In just 25 career starts, he has amassed 1,563 rushing yards in total. Although he has shown to be a top rusher, his passing statistics paint a quite different picture.
In 2022, Fields only passed for 2,242 yards, bringing his career total to 4,112 yards in 25 starts. He has also thrown a worrying 21 interceptions, which is about one per game, and only 24 touchdowns, less than one per game. Additionally, he has completed fewer than 60% of his career passes.
