Tyson Bagent is likely to start at QB for the Chicago Bears on Thursday, as Justin Fields is listed as doubtful
Rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent is expected to make his fourth consecutive start for the Chicago Bears on Thursday night against the Carolina Panthers, as Justin Fields continues to recover from the dislocated right thumb he suffered in Week 6.
Fields, who returned to practice Friday, has remained limited in on-field work this week and officially was listed as doubtful for the Week 10 game at Soldier Field on Wednesday’s injury report. He has been out since Oct. 15, when he dislocated the thumb in the third quarter of a 19-13 home loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Bagent replaced him in that game and started the last three games. He has played well in spurts and propelled the Bears to a 30-12 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in his first start.
But he also has turned the ball over eight times in 14 quarters, including four giveaways in last week’s 24-17 road loss to the New Orleans Saints.
