Justin Fields officially ruled out for Thanksgiving

For Chicago Bears fans hoping that Justin Fields would be able to somehow suit up for the Week 12 showdown against the Detroit Lions, it's not going to happen. On Wednesday, the team officially ruled him out due to a ribs injury.

With Fields out of action, this means that Andy Dalton will be getting the start against the Lions. Will he be able to power the team to a victory?

#Bears ruled out DT Akiem Hicks (ankle), QB Justin Fields (ribs), and RB Damien Williams (calf) for tomorrow’s Thanksgiving game vs. the #Lions. WR Allen Robinson (hamstring) is doubtful, while safety Eddie Jackson (hamstring) is questionable.

It's been a rough year for the Bears and rumors continue to swirl that Matt Nagy will be fired later this week. Should the team lose to Detroit, it'd be a stunner if he didn't get canned.
