CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Bears traded quarterback Justin Fields to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday night, a person informed of the deal told The Associated Press.
Chicago will receive a conditional 2025 pick, another person familiar with the details of the trade told the AP.
The move is a strong signal the Bears will draft a QB -- perhaps USC’s Caleb Williams -- with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft.
The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams haven’t announced the trade. NFL Network first reported the deal.
