Matt Nagy’s bag of tricks, Justin Fields’ availability for Week 18: Bears Monday Rewind

The Bears hadn’t had a fun game in a while. “We’ll get him in here the next couple days and see where he’s at and then be able to get him going for Wednesday practice,” Nagy said. Similarly to veterans playing over rookies, Fields is atop the depth chart at quarterback, so if he’s healthy, he plays, even if it’s a Week 18 game between two teams not making the playoffs. Montgomery played 45 of the 66 snaps, but one snap that didn’t include Montgomery was the fourth-and-3 touchdown throw to Mooney. Gipson’s interception, his second of the season, combined with Deon Bush’s pick, also the second of his season, meant the Bears will not set a franchise low in interceptions in a season.
