Justin Fields Expected To Return In Week 11

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (thumb) has been out since Week 6, missing the team's last four games. After logging a full practice on Wednesday, the 24-year-old quarterback is expected to return to face the Lions in Detroit in Week 11. Before exiting the team's Week 6 game against the Vikings, Fields put together his best two performances of the season in Weeks 4 and 5. He totaled over 300 yards in the air and on the ground in those matchups, throwing for eight touchdowns in two games. Fields is a great option for fantasy managers with his rushing upside and deep-ball accuracy. The Bears take on the Lions in Week 11, who allow the 10th-most points per game to quarterbacks this season. A year ago, the Ohio State alum put together two top-10 quarterback finishes against the Lions, including his best season game where he ran for 147 yards and two touchdowns.
