The Chicago Bears face a pivotal decision at this moment. The choice is not easy for some, as there are still those who believe that Justin Fields possesses the qualities of a franchise-caliber quarterback, and that the team should focus on building around him. On the other hand, there are those who argue that selecting Caleb Williams is a no-brainer. Williams is regarded as one of the most talented quarterback prospects in recent years and his rookie contract would alleviate the financial burden for the Bears.
Former NFL star Plaxico Burress has voiced his opinion on the matter, suggesting that despite the logical fit between Fields and the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Atlanta Falcons would be a better destination for him. Burress made his case on The Carton Show, highlighting the offensive talent of the Falcons, including Drake London, Bijan Robinson, and Kyle Pitts. He believes that Atlanta is just one quarterback away from being a contender in the NFC South.
Oddsmakers currently favor the Steelers as the top choice to acquire the former Ohio State star, followed by the possibility of him remaining with the Bears or joining the Falcons. Considering that Fields is a Georgia native, a return to his home state would be a sensible move. Other teams such as the New England Patriots, Washington Commanders, Denver Broncos, and Las Vegas Raiders may also express interest in acquiring his services.
This could potentially be Fields’ final opportunity to prove himself as a star in the league, regardless of the team he ultimately joins.
