FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields will practice for a couple of weeks with a plastic shield on the outside of his cleats to protect his injured toe. All things considered, though, he's "very relieved" that last week's injury wasn't major.

"God was looking out that day," Fields said Tuesday in addressing the injury for the first time.

Fields limped off the field last Thursday and was taken via cart to the locker room. He said his phone started blowing up, with friends checking in to see if it was serious.
