Justin Fields, quarterback for the Chicago Bears, who dislocated his thumb in Week 6, won't require surgery and has a chance to play in Week 8 against the Chargers. The team is considering his thumb injury a 2-to-3-week injury, and Fields is already regaining grip strength. However, his status for Week 8 will depend on how he performs in practice.
