Who is Justin Fields
Justin Fields’ tantalizing skillset matched with his 6-3 228-pound frame emboldened the Chicago Bears to trade up from the No. 20 pick to the No. 11 to select Fields in the 2021 NFL Draft. His rookie season was a roller coaster, though. Despite the investment in the young Fields, the Bears insisted on starting the veteran Andy Dalton to start the season before handing the rookie the keys to the franchise in Week 3. However, between a series of different injuries (cracked ribs in Week 11, an injured hand in Week 14, and an ankle sprain in Week 15. He missed four games in total. His play left plenty to be desired too. He finished 31st among quarterbacks in QBR, 22nd in deep ball attempts, and 33rd in true passer rating. That wasn't all his fault though. Between a subpar coaching staff, a number of drops and a protection rate that finished 34th among quarterbacks, Fields did not get much help in his first season.
There is still reason for excitement, however. Justin Fields ranked No. 2 amongst qualified quarterbacks with a 10.1 Air Yards Per Attempt average. He finished with 420 (No. 5) rushing yards, 72 (No. 6) carries, and 10 (No. 15) red zone carries. A new coaching staff and front office helmed by former Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus and former Chiefs Executive Director of Player Personnel Ryan Poles should set Fields up for more success under his rookie contract than the previous regime. Optimism is on the horizon for the promising Bears quarterback with a fresh start coming in his second season, where he should improve upon QB31 fantasy finish from a year ago.
