This Justin: Fields Dazzles on the... Field
Like Will Smith running from Tupac's ghost, All eyes are on Justin Fields as he heads into his second season. This is his first season as the undisputed starter. As Luke Getsy implements a new offense and Poles a basically new roster, we collectively hold our breath in anticipation of the new season.
Luke is a QB's best friend and he has been putting in a lot of time with the sophomore. With the exception of Mooney, he will have a brand new receiving corp, as well as a just about new offensive line. This includes the new center, Lucas Patrick.
«He can get moving pretty quick,» Patrick said. «He's a fun guy. He's young, so he likes to have the juice and the energy. He's got a live arm. I mean, there were a few throws he made today where that ball, it's like it keeps getting faster in the air.
«He's soaking everything up. Whether it's coaches, me, or stuff he's telling me, it's really good. [We] couldn't have a better start to a working relationship.»
Fields has exceeded his high expectations and that was a feat alone for Lucas.
«I had pretty high expectations,» Patrick said. «You don't get drafted as high as he does in the National Football League just by kind of having a wet noodle or slow feet. He's really talented. I thought he was going to be really good, and he is exceeding my expectations.»
Fields has a lot to prove this year, but your center trusting you is a very good sign that some progress is being made in the windy city.
