The Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns will look to get to 2-1 on Sunday in a Week 3 intraconference clash. The biggest story of the game will be Justin Fields making his first career start for the Bears. Fields struggled after replacing Andy Dalton in Week 2, so all eyes will be on his performance this week.
On the other side of things, Odell Beckham Jr. looks likely to return from injury, which is great news for the Browns. With Jarvis Landry on injured reserve for at least the next three games, they'll need the best version of Beckham on the field.

Tashaun Gipson Sr. and Jeremiah Attaochu are questionable with hamstring issues. Eddie Goldman was limited in practice after missing the first two games with a knee injury. Goldman's presence would have been critical against the run this week.
Cleveland Browns
The number of names on the Browns' injury report skyrocketed Wednesday. Four offensive line starters are questionable: Jedrick Wills, JC Tretter, Jack Conklin and Joel Bitonio are all banged up.
Defensively, the injury list continues. Linebackers Sione Takitaki and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah are questionable, as is Jadeveon Clowney and Week 2 sensation Demetric Felton. Odell Beckham Jr.'s return is the only good piece of news on the Browns' injury report.
