Fields went to the blue injury tent for a moment before exiting the field to go to the locker room. Undrafted rookie Tyson Bagent will take over under center going forward unless Fields can come back. If Fields’ day is done, he went 6-of-10 for 58 yards and an interception, while also carrying the ball eight times for 46 yards. The Vikings lead the Bears 12-6 in the third quarter.
