Field, their 2021 first-round pick was exchanged for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2025 that could upgrade to a fourth-round pick.

With the No. 1 pick in April’s Draft the Bears are now expected to select USC quarterback Caleb Williams. Fields expressed gratitude to Chicago and his teammates. Drafted in 2021, Fields struggled as a passer but showed promise as a rookie. In three seasons, he accumulated 6,674 passing yards, 40 touchdowns and 30 interceptions along with 2,220 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns.
