Trends

"Fields signed with the Jets and is expected to spend 2025 as the team's starter. Fields spent the first six games of 2024 as the Steelers' starter and, while his play wasn't good enough to avoid a benching in favor of Russell Wilson, the fantasy results were solid; he averaged 18.9 fantasy PPG during his six starts, which would've ranked eighth over the full season. He threw for only 1,106 yards and five TDs, but made up ground as a rusher, ranking top 5 among QBs in carries, rush yards and rush TDs (QB-best five) during Weeks 1-6. This was after he finished his first three NFL seasons top 5 at the position in rushing yards despite missing games each season. Fields' dual-threat ability and a solid group of targets in Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall will be enough to keep him in the weekly QB1 mix."

"Fields joined the Jets on a two-year, $40 million contract on March 10 after the team moved on from starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers this offseason. It was widely assumed that the 26-year-old would fill the hole at starting quarterback, so Mougey's comments don't come as much of a surprise; however, the general manager added that incumbent backup Tyrod Taylor will be "on his heels," per Costello. Mougey also said that the team is hoping for Fields to pull off a turnaround similar to a pair of other high first-round draft picks who found success with a different team than the one who drafted them, citing Sam Darnold with the Vikings last year and Baker Mayfield with the Buccaneers, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. Fields performed relatively well after being traded from the Bears to the Steelers last offseason. In 10 appearances with six starts, he completed a career-high 65.8 percent of his passes for 1,106 yards, five touchdowns and one interception to go along with 62 carries for 289 yards and five TDs. The Jets' offensive skill players are headlined by a pair of standouts with wide receiver Garrett Wilson and running back Breece Hall, but the team lacks in offensive depth and overall infrastructure."
