There’s a lot of excitement about Bears quarterback Justin Fields heading into his second NFL season. Fields had a tough rookie year, which included being among the most-sacked quarterbacks and handcuffed by the coaching staff.
But this year will serve as a fresh start for Fields, who will be learning a new offense with offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. More importantly, new general manager Ryan Poles will look to maximize Fields’ development by adding playmakers at wide receiver and offensive linemen to keep him upright.
Fields has been lauded for his athleticism, work ethic and star power, including from his former teammates at Ohio State.
During the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine, Fields’ former Ohio State teammates, including top wide receiver prospects Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave, had plenty to say about their college QB.
