During Sunday’s Dolphins 35–32 win over the Bears, Miami coach Mike McDaniel appeared to tell Chicago quarterback Justin Fields something on the sidelines when Fields rushed into Miami’s territory.
The video of the instance went viral as fans wondered what McDaniel could have said to Fields.
The Dolphins coach admitted that what he told the second-year quarterback was a joke based on how well Fields was performing during the game. Fields can be seen laughing on the sidelines after McDaniel talked to him.
“I just wanted him to stop scrambling,” McDaniel said.
