Fans of the Big Ten are familiar with the conflict between Kevin Warren and Justin Fields that played out in 2020. Their story began during the pandemic, long before either joined the Chicago Bears.
As the Big Ten Commissioner, Warren made the decision to shut down the 2020 season, citing safety concerns for everyone involved in the game. Fields, however, disagreed and spearheaded a petition to allow the season to continue.

Now that Warren has become the CEO of the Bears, some fans of Fields are concerned. They worry that Warren may hold a grudge from the past and could trade the young quarterback due to their previous clash.
Despite these concerns, it’s clear that Warren and Fields maintain a positive relationship. They have recently spent time together before Warren’s hiring, dispelling any rumors of tension between them.
Although reports indicate that the two are on good terms, the perception lingers that Warren might seek revenge for their 2020 disagreement.
With the Bears holding the number one all in all pick, speculation about Fields’ future with the team is only fueled further. Even if these fears seem unfounded, they persist because of the history between Warren and Fields.
Though their past cannot be erased, both have the opportunity to build a new chapter together in Chicago.
