Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields was ruled out of the game with a hand injury in the third quarter Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings.
Fields went to the medical tent on the sideline early in the third quarter before heading to the locker room. He was holding his right throwing hand as he left the field.
Fields injured his hand while being taken to the ground as he was attempting to flip the ball. His own body weight landed on his right hand after cutting the ball loose.
Backup quarterback Tyson Bagent took over for Fields and fumbled on his first NFL drive, with the Vikings returning it for a touchdown. Bagent is an undrafted rookie out of Shepherd University in Shepherdstown, W.Va.
Fields completed six of 10 passes for 58 yards and threw one interception before leaving the game. He also rushed eight times for 46 yards.
