Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields switches to a vegan diet

Ohio State will be very dangerous with Justin Fields' running ability in 2020.

Early in August, Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields announced to reporters that he would be switching to a vegan diet. After only about a month on the diet, Fields and Buckeye coaches alike have noticed changes in Fields to indicate that the diet has paid off.

Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson was quoted as saying, “He made a commitment, because he wanted to be a little bit leaner, wanted to take care of himself even better, wanted to be faster, he just made a commitment to a style of diet – not that that’s the perfect diet, that was the one he wanted,” Wilson said.
