Fields increased his fantasy production for the sixth consecutive week. He has also finished a top 5 QB in back-to-back weeks. Despite an abysmal start to the season, the 22-year-old is now fantasy’s QB11. He’s the QB2 over the last month of the season, only trailing Joe Burrow.
The Bears’ play calling has gotten better in recent weeks, and Fields’ ascent is a direct reflection of that. Over the last three weeks, he’s averaging 11.3 rush attempts and 76.6 yards per game. Despite there being a lot to be desired in the pass game, the second-year quarterback has shown he’s an elite runner. He ranks second amongst QB’s in attempts and yards this year.
Regardless of your QB situation, Fields needs to be rostered by all manages thanks to his league winning upside.
