The Chicago Bears have received some trade interest for quarterback Justin Fields ahead of the NFL Draft.

The Bears are in an enviable position right now as they hold the No. 1 overall pick, as well as a quarterback boasting real trade value.

According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the team fielded multiple inquiries from outfits around the league during the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. The Bears aren’t shopping the quarterback, given that they’re yet to decide what they’re going to do, but the discussions have been well-received as they’ve allowed them to measure his worth in the current market.

“Chicago staffers got inquiries from other teams on Fields in Mobile. And while the Bears haven’t shopped Fields, those conversations did allow the team to start to gauge the 2021 first-rounder’s worth out there on the market,” Breer writes.

The team will meet over the next few weeks to finalize their plans for the quarterback position in 2024: basically whether they want to continue with Fields or draft Caleb Williams.
