WESTFIELD, Ind. -- Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will not play Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts, coach Matt Eberflus announced Thursday.
Eberflus said Fields and select starters would not play in Chicago's second preseason game due to the amount of "invaluable" work the first team units got during joint practices this week with the Colts.
"[Fields is] not playing. And the selected starters that we have are not playing in the game because of the work we've done here," Eberflus said at the Grand Park Sports Campus. "We decided that last night and that's what we're going with.
