In a recent announcement during the league meeting in Palm Beach, Jets general manager Darren Mougey confirmed that Justin Fields is the new starting quarterback for the organization, expressing strong belief in his capabilities. The Jets have signed Fields to a two-year, $40 million contract with a $30 million guarantee. Mougey expressed hope that Fields could mirror the success of former quarterbacks like Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield, who thrived after moving to new teams. Fields, previously with the Bears and Steelers, aims to rejuvenate his career in New York after a disappointing record.
We believe Justin is the starter. We believe in Justin. We believe we can win with Justin, so we're excited about Justin.
We have seen some of that as of late and it did [play a factor] as we went through the process, and we think we could have the same.
