Bears QB Justin Fields displaying quicker decision-making in camp

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney made an interesting revelation about Justin Fields.

Mooney spoke with the media on Wednesday after the team’s practice. He was asked if he had noticed any differences/growth with Fields, who is entering his third NFL season. Mooney immediately noted that Fields’ decisiveness and command of the offense has improved.

“Within the playbook, there’s no confusion there at all. He’s just, ‘I know where I want to go with the ball, I know where this play is designed for. I know the coverage that I want to get this done in,'” Mooney said of Fields.

Then Mooney made the big revelation.

While complimenting Fields’ command of the offense, he noted that the young quarterback was unable to call plays himself in a two-minute drill last season.

“Even during walk-throughs, we’ll do like two-minute drill, and he’s calling the plays himself. So it’s something he wasn’t able to do last year, just ‘cuz he’s learning. … This year he’s doing that. He’s taking control of everything,” Mooney said.
