The Chicago Bears have already been told they'll be taking on backup Quarterback Mike White in Week 12, but they aren't out of the woods with their own QB situation yet, as news broke after Week 11 that Justin Fields suffered an injury in his left shoulder.
The team updated that by saying he will be day-to-day, and on Wednesday, Fields was limited in practice, and right now, it's very uncertain how available he will be for Sunday's matchup with arguably the best defence in the NFL. Fields described his injury as 'basically an AC joint injury, and while he won't be 100% going forward, there's a chance he plays in Week 12.
Either way, this Bears team has fallen to fourth place in the NFC North on the back of some costly, crunch time interceptions from Fields, and now they'll have to weigh up whether to risk further injury or keep Fields healthy for the long haul, with a big off-season ahead.#Bears QB Justin Fields describes his left shoulder injury as a separated shoulder with torn ligaments -- "basically an AC joint injury." It was described to me on Monday as a dislocation that can cause torn ligaments.

Fields far from 100% going forward, with his status TBD.
