After the New York Jets' new regime decided to part ways with quarterback Aaron Rodgers this offseason, they signed Justin Fields on a two-year, $40 million deal.
Though Fields' was signed to become the Jets' next starting quarterback, or at least a bridge quarterback, he has yet to establish himself as a true franchise player. Fields was drafted by the Chicago Bears in 2021, and spent three inconsistent seasons with the team before he was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Fields dealt with injuries during his time in Chicago but did notable strides toward the end of his final season with the Bears, who ultimately chose to trade Fields and later draft Caleb Williams.
