Craig Carton, on his FS1 show, suggested an unconventional idea for Justin Fields, proposing that the Chicago Bears quarterback consider transitioning to the wide receiver position.
Carton argued that Fields’ diverse skills could be better utilized in this role, envisioning a formidable duo alongside D.J. Moore. However, this suggestion was met with criticism, with former NFL wide receiver Greg Jennings dismissing it as disrespectful and unrealistic.

Carton defended his idea, asserting his innovative thinking and emphasizing Fields’ exceptional athleticism. Yet, critics argued that such a move would not leverage Fields’ primary talent as a quarterback. Despite Carton’s previous suggestion regarding Bryce Young, skepticism surrounds his latest proposition.
The debate over Fields’ future intensifies as the Bears weigh their options. However, Carton’s proposal faces widespread rejection in Chicago, and it’s unlikely that Fields would entertain such a drastic career change, especially considering the potential financial rewards awaiting him as a quarterback.
