Justin Fields is one of the foremost quarterback prospects in this year’s draft class. The Ohio State quarterback had a wonderful season with the Buckeyes last year, reaching the national championship game.

Going into this year’s draft, Fields is the next in what has been a long line of Ohio State quarterbacks to enter the NFL. However, Fields thinks he isn’t the same as those who came before him.

Justin Fields addressed his legacy as an Ohio State quarterback. Fields believes that unlike some quarterbacks from Ohio State, there is a major difference in their work ethic.

He compared himself to Dwayne Haskins and noted that other than their own playing sets, they don’t really have that much in common with each other. He noted his work ethic is greater than that of the others.

“I don’t know those guys personally, I don’t know their work ethic. I don’t know what they were taught, I know what Dwayne was taught was a little similar to what coach Day was teaching me.

“But in all honesty, I think I’m different than those guys. I know my work ethic is unmatched, and just my dedication and passion to wanting to be great is just another level.”

Justin Fields not like other Ohio State quarterbacks

Fields noted that he has no control over comparisons to the quarterbacks. The only thing, in his mind, that is in common between him and the other quarterbacks is the fact that they played for Ohio State.

Fields isn’t concerned by the comparisons and is only working to improve his own game. Fields is focused primarily on furthering his own NFL career.

“In terms of the past quarterbacks, I can’t control that. The only similarity that me and those guys have is that we wore the same uniform.
