There is no shortage of Justin Fields trade scenarios.
The Chicago Bears quarterback still awaits his fate as either the Bears will decide to stick with Fields and presumably trade down from the first overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft or they will trade him and select presumed first overall pick quarterback Caleb Williams.

The Atlanta Falcons are currently the team considered the frontrunners to acquire Fields.
However, this latest blockbuster trade proposal from ESPN’s Seth Walder has Fields ending up with the Cleveland Browns.
“The Browns trade for QB Justin Fields. This is a wild one, I know. But if I were the Browns, I would look at Deshaun Watson as mostly a sunk cost and try to upgrade at quarterback. With no first-round pick and so much money already heading Watson’s way, this would be tough to do. But trading a second- or third-round pick for Fields (still on his rookie contract) is feasible, and I’d like to see Fields in Kevin Stefanski’s offense. The alternative is simply hoping that Watson improves and, if not, wasting another year of a talented roster.”
Starting quarterback Deshaun Watson hasn’t been great for the Cleveland Browns, especially when considering that he signed for $230 million.
However, nobody within the Browns organization has given any indication that Watson won’t be the starter in 2024 so this comes completely out of left field.
If an AFC North team does make a move for Fields, it will still most likely be the Pittsburgh Steelers.
