Bears quarterback Justin Fields has emerged as a fantasy football sensation. But can he iron out the kinks in his game to translate that into NFL success?
Even in this golden age of scrambling quarterbacks in the NFL, there isn’t anyone quite like the Chicago Bears’ Justin Fields. He runs laps around defenses that scheme to prevent him from doing exactly that. He broke the record for quarterbacks with 178 rushing yards in a single regular-season game a couple of weeks ago. He averages more yards per rushing attempt than most quarterbacks do per pass.
One way of measuring Fields’s recent play is through how millions of people track NFL players: fantasy football. Over the past two weeks, he has two of the 50 best all-time fantasy performances for a quarterback. That’s more top-50 showings than Tom Brady has put together in his entire career. When quarterbacks can run—and Fields does that perhaps better than anyone else in the league—they become fantasy football cheat codes.
