Chicago Bears: Justin Fields looks ripped in latest photo

Since the day Justin Fields was drafted by the Chicago Bears, he has been locked in.

Whether it be connecting with new teammates and putting in work on his own time or being the first one in and last one out at team activities, Fields has taken on every ounce of responsibility he possibly can.

The first-round rookie out of Ohio State doesn’t appear to be treating his job like he’s a rookie. From every account, he has taken this opportunity as seriously as possible.

Fields has posted a photo or video from time to time since he was selected by the Bears, giving fans a taste of his offseason workouts and whereabouts. Recently, Fields posted a photo to his Instagram story showing off the strong physique he was lauded for coming out of college.

Physical traits aren’t everything, but by the looks of it, Chicago Bears rookie Justin Fields won’t be easy to bring down.

From the photo Fields posted, one can tell he has put in some serious work over the years. A lot of fans have compared Fields’ physique to that of Cam Newton, but just a bit shorter. The combination of strength and athleticism is rare in a quarterback these days, but Fields certainly has it.

Speaking of putting the work in, Fields also plans to report to Bears training camp two weeks early. For those who missed it, he told the media he will be studying the playbook even further on his own and meeting with head coach Matt Nagy via Zoom before everybody else arrives.

It is certainly safe to say Fields is not only disciplined in the gym, but mentally strong as well. His discipline with learning and absorbing everything he possibly can as a rookie is impressive.

By the time training camp rolls around, Fields should have a decent grasp on the playbook and enough knowledge to give Andy Dalton a run for his money. Although, it won’t matter in the end if Nagy keeps his word. Dalton is the starter for Week 1.

But, after Week 1, all bets are off.

Don’t be surprised if the Bears’ prized rookie sees all of his offseason work pay off sooner rather than later if Dalton struggles. This kid is here to win at all costs, and it shows thus far. Fields is ready to play in the NFL, and it’s only a matter of time.
