Overview

  • Coach Aaron Glenn said Fields participated in non-contact, position drills Thursday and will start Monday if he completes the NFL’s concussion protocol.
  • Per league rules, he must be cleared by team doctors for full activity and receive final approval from an independent neurologist before he can play.
  • ESPN’s Dan Graziano reported Fields’ progress has not been easy and there remains a real chance he could miss another game.
  • Tyrod Taylor started in Week 3 and went 26-of-36 for 197 yards with two touchdowns and a pick-6 in a 29-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
  • The 0-3 Jets visit the Dolphins on Monday night, and ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler expects New York to stick with Fields when healthy, noting the team is paying him $20 million in cash this season.
