Justin Fields Reunion

I have to admit I was thinking the same thing. Would the Steelers welcome Fields back for a league minimum contract if the Jets release him?

Fields signed a 2 year contract for $40 million. $30 million of that is guaranteed. Next year only $10 million will be guaranteed, and the Jets could save the other $10 million if they release him.

I know it is crazy, but last year I thought Fields was showing improvement in Arthur Smith's offence, before Tomlin replaced him with Russell Wilson.

 

I wonder if he can catch?

 

We did?

 

People can say what they want about Kordell,but theres no denying he was electric with the ball in his hands. Seriously mismanaged by cowher and the various coordinators

 

They never should have tried to let him play quarterback

Safety maybe Receive4 maybe bu5 h3 definitely did not have what it takes to be a quarterback

 

He needs to learn routes or become a grad assistant at OSU; his days of being a QB are over.

 

Teams always look for backup quarterbacks

He and Kenny the Coward will find backup jobs somewhere

 

I couldnt disagree more. Cowher, tried making him into pocket passer. That wasnt his game. I would bet Had they put together an offense similar to what the ravens did for jackson his career arc would have been drastically different.

 

He's going to be cheap again after being bad in NY.

He was probably best in the the small sample he played with us.

And he's a good backup at worst. Kind of like when Mason came back.

We're currently a team without a QB for next year.

Draft class not looking great.

If our QB room floor next season is Mason/Fields/Howard and a real competition, it's not really worse than we've had recently. I'd prefer this and waiting another year to drafting another Pickett and losing 2 years to figure out we didn't want him.

 

Why can't Fields be a Taysom Hill type of asset. Backup QB, RB and WR?

Last year it looked like we were going to get this, but then Fields got hurt when he was coming in to run a QB sneak.

 

That’s hilarious

 

Scheme matters

 

Agreed

 

Finding a franchise QB involves cycling thru arms til you find one.
Didn’t we already cycle thru him?

 

Please no reunion with Justin " I'll get you 17 pts" Fields.

 

I don’t know he would have to be CHEAP. He has been HORRIBLE with the Jets. I know some of it is the play calling but 75% is him just being bad. He did have Garrett Wilson and still has Hall. If we grab anyone from the Jets it should be Wilson or Hall. Although I’m sure Hall has a contract we don’t want to touch. I don’t know what Wilson’s contract looks like. That said I don’t think we should bring him back.

 

is he fast?

 

Fields has put accuracy downfield. He's either going to throw short or run. Defenses will load up and the offense will go nowhere. This has been the result with 3 teams now. I think the world knows what Fields brings at this point. Short yardage specialist, maybe. Niche player.

 

Breaking News!!! Unamed and make believe Insider believes Justin Fields COULD be back with the Steelers soon!!!

Here are my issues.

Who is "an insider"?
Could is pretty subjective.
When the hell is soon? Tomorrow? Next week? 2032?

I rarely click on any articles that Steeler Nation puts out. They put out outlandish, clickbait Steeler articles that usually have no basis in reality.
