Justin Fields: NFL History in the Making?

0:00It's March 22nd. Welcome to NFL News Today. Powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story. If Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes isn't ready for week one of the 2026 season after tearing his ACL last December, backup. Justin Fields could step in and make NFL history. Fields would become the first player ever to start as the opening week quarterback for four different teams in four straight years. That lineup includes the Bears in 2023, the Steelers in 2024 when Russell Wilson got hurt and the Jets in 25. He's already joined a rare group as one of just seven quarterbacks since 1950 to kick off three consecutive seasons as the starter for three separate teams. Schedule makers might line up the Jets to play in Kansas City that year, giving Fields another chance to face his latest former squad, just like he did against Pittsburgh last season. This sets up an intriguing storyline as the league gears toward another competitive year.
