Yahoo Sports NFL on Justin Fields

Fields' run ability could unlock short-yardage upside if deployed.

Backup quarterback Justin Fields is a run threat who has not seen the field once this season; the source notes that Fields could raise the upside of short-yardage and red-zone read-option plays, as having an actual QB run those looks makes those plays less risky than the current approach of using skill position players like Mecole Hardman and Travis Kelce on read-option looks.
