Bears quarterback Justin Fields will be limited Wednesday and backup quarterback Trevor Siemian will be out for the practice with an oblique injury suffered during warmups Sunday morning.
The uncertainty surrounding the Bears’ quarterback situation prompted the Bears to add Tim Boyle off the Lions practice squad. Boyle has experience with offensive coordinator Luke Getsy from their days with the Packers.
Fields will take some starters’ snaps Wednesday, head coach Matt Eberflus said. Third-stringer Nathan Peterman will take the others.
Fields separated his left shoulder and suffered partial ligament damage when he was tackled on a planned run in the fourth quarter of the Bears’ loss to the Falcons on Nov.
