Justin Fields’ teammates made his job easier in perfect passing day

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields warms up before the preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans.

Nothing was ever simple for the Bears’ passing attack last year. On the backfields of training camp this year, it’s rarely been easy.

Saturday, it was — twice.

By the time Justin Fields finished his one quarter of work in Saturday’s preseason opener, the Bears quarterback had merely completed all three passes he threw for 129 yards and a perfect 158.3 passer rating.

No presumptive Week 1 starter had thrown two touchdowns in the Bears’ preseason opener this millennium.
