Anyone who watches the Big Ten knows all about Kevin Warren and Justin Fields battling each other in 2020.
Their story began during the COVID-19 outbreak, long before either of them became part of the Chicago Bears.
For Warren, who was the Big Ten Commissioner, he wanted to shut down the 2020 season.
The reason for this was the safety of all those involved in putting together a game.
However, Fields had a different take, as he pushed a petition to play the 2020 season.
With the two going against each other, having Warren as CEO of the Bears concerns fans who like Fields.
To them, they feel their new CEO could trade the young quarterback for something that happened over two years ago.
However, as history will show, the two have a good relationship.
Once Justin Fields went Head-2-Head with president Kevin Warren.
The reality is as newly appointed commissioner, Warren was the face of the councils vote to cancel the season.

But the concern remains, despite reporting of the two being on good terms.
While the NFL world has its fair share of drama, fans shouldn’t worry about drama between Fields and Warren.
They have a respect for each other and have shared time together recently before Warren’s hiring as the new CEO.
But the perception remains, Warren is out for payback over what happened in 2020.
With the Bears holding the number one overall pick, it furthers the perception that Fields will no longer with the team.
While these seem like crazy ideas, it’s a fear fans have over the history between the two men.
They can’t rewrite the history between each other, but they can write a new chapter together in Chicago.
This new chapter gives fans something to look forward to in 2023 and beyond.
