Justin Fields Joins Jets on Two-Year, $40 Million Deal

The 26-year-old quarterback departs the Steelers as the Jets seek a short-term solution under new head coach Aaron Glenn.

Justin Fields signed a two-year, $40 million contract with the New York Jets, with $30 million guaranteed, signaling a fresh start for the quarterback.
The Jets' decision to bring in Fields is seen as a short-term move while the team evaluates its long-term quarterback options under new head coach Aaron Glenn.
Fields showed flashes of potential with the Steelers last season, leading the team to six games with notable performances, but questions remain about his consistency and durability.
The Steelers now face uncertainty at quarterback, exploring options including veteran Aaron Rodgers and free agent Russell Wilson as potential replacements.
Fields' move to the Jets has sparked mixed reactions, with fans skeptical about the team's Super Bowl prospects despite the signing.
