It's March 17th for the NFL. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. Jets owner Woody Johnson publicly slammed quarterback Justin Fields last season, saying his low rating was hurting the team and they just needed to. Complete some passes. Now Fields has signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as a backup to patch him homes, giving him a shot to prove his old boss wrong. Johnson made those comments during league meetings last October, amid the Jets struggles. He also worked to block the NFL Players Association from sharing critical report cards on team owners, which he called bogus. Fields stayed classy in response, but must have felt the sting of getting called out by the owner. His stats last year were solid though, with an 89.5 passer rating, 62.7% completion, seven touchdowns, and just one interception. The Chiefs host the Jets early this season, so Fields could see action if my homes is in fully healthy from his injury recovery. The team might limit my homes as snaps to ease him back, turning Fields into a key offensive
option. The Jets handed Fields a two-year deal with $30 million, fully guaranteed, but now he's motivated elsewhere. Meanwhile, they just traded to bring back Geno Smith, another former player who thrived after leaving. The Daily News Now is presented by our sponsor, LinkedIn the description.
