Justin Fields is not changing a thing after his historic performance
Justin Fields played a magnificent game on Sunday. However, he is not looking to change a thing even though he won NFC offensive player of the week.
His great performance was not a surprise to some of his teammates.
Indeed, from working with Fields since the day he was drafted to spending an offseason with the QB, WR Darnell Mooney "knew he was going to blossom" and expects continued growth that "only time will show."
Well, Justin has those same expectations for himself. While he said national recognition like being named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week is always nice to receive, it's not going to affect the way he goes about his day and his preparation for the rest of the season.
"I'm not the type to get too high on one award," Fields said, "just the same old me. I'm going come back to work today, practice hard with my guys and we're just going to get better."
His tight end Cole Kmet feels the same way as well.
"Everyone looks at it, like, 'Oh, he's playing so much better, what's changed?' He's been sticking to his process the whole time and that's the same for a lot of us here," Kmet said. "So he's been the same guy and that's respectable as a person. He's not changing who he is, if has a good game, he's sticking to the same habits. So being consistent with how you approach things is how you achieve success in this league. I've seen that from older guys. That's important and he's really stuck to that."
