Justin Fields rolled right, looked back across the field and saw Jesse James with no one around him. The Bears’ rookie quarterback stopped and flicked the ball 24 yards in the air toward the tight end, who was so open when he caught the ball that he moonwalked six yards into the end zone.
Bears fans, watching a game at Soldier Field for the first time since the end of the 2019 season, roared with approval at the 30-yard touchdown.
So did LeBron James.
“Justin Fields is so SPECIAL man!!” the Lakers star Tweeted a minute later.
