Following Justin Fields‘ apparent Instagram breakup with the team, Bears supporters are speculating that he and the Chicago Bears are divorcing. When some astute fans saw that Fields was no longer following Chicago’s official Instagram account, social media went crazy.

The 24-year-old Fields may not have been following the team at all, and if he was, it’s unclear when he stopped doing so. The former first-round selection does follow his colleagues, such as offensive tackle Braxton Jones and safety Elijah Hicks of the Bears.
Fields last posted a video of himself working out with Reebok on the social media network on February 9.
What’s next for Justin Fields ?
Fields might be traded by Chicago prior to the start of the free agent signing period on March 13.
Given that they are in need of a quarterback and that Fields is from Georgia, the Falcons have been mentioned frequently in trade rumors. According to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, other NFL teams made inquiries about possible trades for Fields during this year’s Senior Bowl.
The NFL Scouting Combine begins in Indianapolis next week, and the Bears brass is reportedly meeting to “finalize plans” for the quarterback position. They hope to have a strategy in place by then. This season, Fields passed for 2,562 yards, 16 touchdowns, nine interceptions, and an 86.3 passing rating.
After going 3-14 the previous year, Chicago finished last in the NFC North with a 7-10 record.
