You think you want to be Justin Fields? Think again
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (1) rushes against the Green Bay Packers during an NFL football game on Sunday, Dec. 12, 2021, in Green Bay, Wis.So you’d like to be in Bears quarterback Justin Fields’ shoes for a moment?
First off, feel that immense burden on your back, like a few 80-pound gunny sacks of Idaho potatoes.
Next, say to yourself: ‘‘I’m carrying these spuds up that hill. I’ll show everybody. I can do it!’’
After that, well, sit down, focus the lamp, open a massive book and try to learn Mandarin as fast as you can.
If this sounds a little tough, sorry. Welcome to Fields’ cleats.
