NFL Fans Praise Steelers for Fleecing Bears in Justin Fields Trade After Wilson Deal

Justin Fields is heading to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Chicago Bears traded the 2021 11th overall pick to the Steelers for a 2025 sixth-round pick that can convert into a fourth-round pick based on playtime. The deal lands him in a quarterback room that recently signed Russell Wilson, and the expectation is that Fields will play behind Wilson.

It was expected that the Bears would trade Fields, as they'll likely take a quarterback with the first pick in the 2024 NFL draft. What wasn't expected was for the Bears to give him away for a relatively low cost.
