Through the first six weeks of the 2022 NFL season, Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields completed 63 of 115 attempts (54.8%) for 869 yards (7.6 yards per attempt), four touchdowns, five interceptions, and a passer rating of 72.7 — the third-worst in the NFL behind only Kenny Pickett of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and Baker Mayfield of the Carolina Panthers.
From that, you would not be incorrect in assuming that Fields was prone to the same issues that led to his underwhelming 2021 rookie season, in which he completed 159 of 270 passes (58.9%) for 1,870 yards (6.9 YPA), seven touchdowns, 10 interceptions, and a passer rating of 73.2, the fifth-worst in the NFL.
