They said it was on his shoulders for Ohio State to have a good year on the gridiron in 2019. Everything has been saddled on the back of Georgia transfer quarterback Justin Fields, and so far at least — he’s delivering.
Fields hasn’t had to be Superman, but what he’s shown is an ability to not only throw the ball down field, but to make plays with his feet in both designed and non-designed situations. Simply put, he’s grasped the offense enough in a short period of time to make Ohio State look like a College Football Playoff worthy team thus far.
His passing and rushing stats aren’t eye-popping from a volume standpoint, but he’s got a knack for the most important thing. Finding the end zone.
So far this year, Fields has already accounted for a lucky No. 13 total touchdowns just three games into the season. That’s more than Joe Burrow, more than Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence, and tied with Tua Tagovailoa of Alabama. It’s rare company indeed.
It should at least get him in on the early fringe Heisman discussions.
In case you’ve missed any of the touchdowns from the 6-3, 223 lb. sophomore, or in the event you just want to watch and reminisce, then you’re in luck. Thanks to a montage of all thirteen of Fields’ touchdowns provided by the official Twitter feed of Fox College Football, we’ve got all of the moments of pay-dirt below.
