Justin Fields Has 'Plenty Of Confidence' In Chicago's Receivers

May 31, 2022 9:01 AM

The Chicago Bears shuffled their receiving corps this offseason, but second-year quarterback Justin Fields remains confident in his weapons.

The Bears lost Allen Robinson, Jakeem Grant and Marquise Goodwin, while adding Tajae Sharpe, Byron Pringle and Equanimeous St. Brown.

"We don't have an Odell [Beckham Jr.] or a Cooper Kupp on our team, but at the end of the day I think if everybody is on their P's and Q's, and we're on top of everything and not making mistakes, the players we have right now are good enough," Fields said.

"The front office thinks that, too. The fans outside of the facility, they don't know what's going on at practice. Just because we don't have a big-name guy doesn't mean those guys aren't talented. I have plenty of confidence in myself and my teammates that we're going to get the job done."
