The Cook County Department of Public Health issued a mandate for indoor public areas also effective Aug. 20 that includes multiunit residential buildings and condominium buildings. Gov. J.B.

The belief in Fields, who will start his career in a backup role, hasn’t dissipated. To fans, coaches and players alike, the rookie’s performance through training camp and in three preseason games only strengthened the belief that he has all the talent, poise and drive to be a damn good starting quarterback in the NFL. For a long time. That, obviously, is a promising step forward at the most important position in the sport.
