The Chicago Bears have a pretty significant decision to make at the quarterback position this offseason regarding whether to stick with Justin Fields as their starting quarterback or part ways with him and use the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft to select a rookie quarterback to replace him. And based on a recent move from Fields on social media, there’s a chance the Bears could have made that decision already.
As Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports points out on social media, Justin Fields has unfollowed the Chicago Bears on his personal Instagram account as well as the account for his dog, Uno.
“BREAKING: Justin Fields no longer follows the Bears on Instagram,” Fornelli wrote in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.
DEVELOPING: Justin Fields’ dog Uno has also unfollowed the Bears on Instagram. As of yet I am unable to confirm whether Uno made this decision himself or if his social media manager made it. Remarkable nonetheless. pic.twitter.com/VB49jMv6Ai

“Justin Fields’ dog Uno has also unfollowed the Bears on Instagram. As of yet I am unable to confirm whether Uno made this decision himself or if his social media manager made it. Remarkable nonetheless,” Fornelli wrote.
Obviously, this does not totally guarantee that the Bears are planning to move on from Fields this offseason. But it does allow fans to read between the lines a little bit more regarding the situation.
