Dalton did head to the sideline tent after his injury, as Justin Fields relieved him at quarterback. Dalton appeared on the Bears’ next possession, however there was apparent discomfort from the veteran.
Through the first half, Dalton has gone 9/10 for 56 yards and a touchdown to Allen Robinson. He’s also added two runs for 25 yards. Fields meanwhile is 0/1 on his lone pass attempt on the day.
