LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Justin Fields won't get a chance to break the single-season rushing record for an NFL quarterback.
Fields will miss the season finale against the Minnesota Vikings because of a strained hip and Nathan Peterman will start in his place, coach Matt Eberflus said Wednesday.
Fields finishes his second season with 1,143 yards rushing, 63 shy of the record of 1,206 set by Baltimore's Lamar Jackson in 2019 during his MVP season.
Fields said after Sunday's blowout loss at Detroit his hip was sore. Eberflus said it was bothering him Monday.
