NOVEMBER 23, 2021 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Confirmed as Thursday's starter Bears head coach Matt Nagy confirmed Tuesday that Dalton will get the start at quarterback Thanksgiving Day against the Lions, Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic reports.

Impact Dalton slides back into the No. 1 role this week with Justin Fields still tending to a rib injury suffered during Sunday's loss to the Ravens, but Nagy was careful to note that the rookie quarterback remains the team's starter when healthy, per Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times. To that end, Nagy is hoping Fields will be ready to start in the Bears' Week 13 game against Arizona, but he'll likely be inactive this week while Nick Foles presumably steps in as Dalton's backup. After coming on in relief of Fields in Week 12, Dalton completed 11 of 23 pass attempts for 201 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The veteran draws a juicy matchup this week against a suspect Lions secondary, but he could be operating without one of his top pass-catching options in receiver Allen Robinson (hamstring), who sat out against Baltimore and has yet to resume practicing.

In line to start Thursday Dalton is expected to start in place of Justin Fields (ribs) on Thursday at Detroit, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Dalton stepped in for Fields after the rookie injured his ribs in the third quarter of Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Ravens, completing 11 of 23 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns. Both scores were big gainers, as Darnell Mooney took a screen pass 60 yards to the house, while Marquise Goodwin burned the Baltimore secondary for a 49-yard strike. Without those plays, Dalton's stat line would have been a more stated 9-for-21 for 92 yards, but he'll fortunately have the Lions' 30th-ranked scoring defense in the other side Thursday as he gets a spot start in place of Fields.
