Thankfully, there is some great news for Bears fans.

According to a recent report by The MMQB's Albert Breer, Fields is back in good health after spending the offseason resting and rehabbing his body.

“Justin Fields was present for the first day of the Bears’ offseason program, and he’s back much healthier than he was at the end of the season," Breer wrote. "Fields spent time with his teammates during the three-month break, but rested and rehabbed physically after the toll last year took on his body—160 carries will leave a mark.”

This news is especially significant given the toll that last year's 160 carries took on his body.

Fields is a talented player with the potential to be one of the NFL's top quarterbacks, but his success will depend on his ability to stay healthy.

Fields threw for 2,242 yards with 17 passing touchdowns and 1,143 rushing yards with 8 eight touchdowns last season.
