Jets Tap Into Justin Fields' Dual-Threat Ability for 2025 Season
28 Jul
Summary
- Jets sign QB Justin Fields to 2-year, $40M contract
- Fields finished 2nd in QB rushing yards in 2023 season
- PFF projects Fields to rush for over 625 yards in 2025

In the upcoming 2025 NFL season, the New York Jets are poised to tap into the dynamic playmaking abilities of their new starting quarterback, Justin Fields. The athletic QB signed a two-year, $40 million contract with the franchise in free agency and is set to be the Jets' starter for the foreseeable future.
Jets offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand is expected to design an offense that capitalizes on Fields' strengths as a dual-threat quarterback. In his last full-time campaign as a starter in 2023, Fields finished second in the league in rushing yards by a quarterback, trailing only Lamar Jackson. His ability to scramble and create explosive gains with his legs places significant stress on opposing defenses.
According to a recent analysis by Pro Football Focus, the oddsmakers have underestimated Fields' rushing prowess. PFF projects the young QB to rush for over 625.5 yards this season, well above the 625-yard line set by bookmakers. As one of the most electric runners at the quarterback position, the Jets are poised to unleash Fields' dynamic playmaking abilities in the 2025 campaign.
