It looks like Justin Fields and Darnell Mooney are working hard together this off-season!
Scott Polacek of Bleacher Report had the chance to sit down with our QB Justin Fields to ask him a few questions. At the end of the interview, the subject of his friend and teammate WR Darnell Mooney came out. Fields immediately lit up and said:
"How hard he works," Fields said when discussing what stands out about Mooney. "He's already talented; he's fast and has great hands. On top of that, he works harder than anybody I know other than myself. A couple of nights ago, we were in the facility until 12:30 a.m. going through plays and walking through plays for the next day at practice."
Mooney is Chicago's clear-cut No. 1 option heading into the 2022 season and showed immediate rapport with Fields. He registered 81 catches for 1,055 yards and four touchdowns in 2021. It was the wide receiver's second year in the league, and he could be in line for a jump if his quarterback is to be believed.
I absolutely love that these two guys have built a great friendship together and I know for a fact that they are extremely hard-working players that will blossom in the next few seasons alongside each other.
