Fields spent 2024 with the Pittsburgh Steelers where he started the first half of the season before being relegated upon Russell Wilson's return.

Fields gets a fresh start in a new city where he could potentially be the QB1 in 2025, hoping to capitalize off of a successful campaign where he improved his efficiency in a promising way. He could be an intriguing option in fantasy leagues in 2025 given his two-way ability.
