QB Justin Fields says his mindset is 'completely different' in Year 2 with Chicago Bears
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields acknowledged feeling different at the start of his second NFL offseason given the uncertainty he isn't facing with his status as the team's starting quarterback.
"It feels good just having that mindset," Fields said. 'It's definitely a different mindset than last year, so I'm ready for the role and I'm ready to lead this offense and lead this team."
The Bears began a three-day voluntary minicamp on Tuesday where the majority of the offense was in attendance. The only player not present for the afternoon practice was quarterback Nick Foles, and general manager Ryan Poles said the team was "working on" trading him last month at the NFL owners meetings.
Fields' command of the offense impressed coach Matt Eberflus, who also noted that the quarterback's footwork has gotten cleaner, which will aid him in getting to the ball and getting it out faster.
"I thought he did an excellent job today," Eberflus said. "He really did. He was in command of the offense, really every play that I saw. There's certainly, when you're working with 11 guys, there was a mistake here and there by this person or that person, but man, he had really good command today."
