According to NFL talent evaluators, Justin Fields isn’t garnering much favor. Despite being the current starter for the Bears, it seems he’s being edged out by presumed No. 1 pick Caleb Williams, with little trade interest as free agency approaches, ESPN reports.
“I’ve said all along, I’d be surprised if the Bears didn’t go for Caleb Williams at one,” remarked ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Monday. “So, what happens to Justin Fields? I don’t think the market for him right now is as strong as the Bears and he had anticipated.”
The Bears purportedly have their sights set on drafting a quarterback rather than sticking with the inconsistent Fields, making the 25-year-old expendable.
While Fields’ football future is uncertain, his personal life appears more stable. According to our exclusive source, Justin recently gifted a dog to one of his girlfriends. Fields’ girlfriend Yessica Cheyenne took to social media to share the news of her dog’s birthday. The dog’s middle name is Justin according to our source, and coincidentally almost shares a birthday with the Bears QB.
Fields just turned 25 years old yesterday.

Fields has also been romantically linked to another girlfriend, Gianna Carmona.
Bears general manager Ryan Poles suggested that trading Fields by March 13, the start of free agency, would be the right move if the team commits to drafting a new quarterback.
Several factors seem to be hindering the Bears’ efforts to trade Fields as free agency approaches. His performance hasn’t solidified him as a franchise quarterback, and potential acquiring teams must weigh whether to invest in him as such. Additionally, teams may prefer to wait for free agency when they can sign players without giving up draft picks.
Despite the uncertainty in his football career, it’s clear that Justin Fields has a vibrant life beyond the gridiron.
