QB rushing mark in sight for Bears’ Fields with 3 games left
LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Justin Fields insisted he doesn’t plan to make 1,000-yard rushing seasons a regular occurrence. “So we’ll take a look at it — each individual defense that we face and unit that we face — and then go from there what’s best for our team to win.” The Bears have lost seven in a row and are one shy of matching the franchise record after Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles held them off 25-20 on Sunday. Fields also broke Bobby Douglass’ franchise rushing record for a QB of 968 yards in a 14-game season in 1972. The Bears made some big plays, intercepting Hurts on two of Philadelphia’s first four possessions, but they also gave up 315 yards passing in the game. He said Jenkins was seeing specialists to “double-check and cross-check everything.” It was not clear if he will miss the rest of the season.. Eberflus had no update on rookie LB Jack Sanborn, who left Sunday’s game.. RB Khalil Herbert is expected to return this week against Buffalo after missing four games.
