The Magician: Justin Fields impressive day vs. Detroit ushering star QB into history

Justin Fields is a magician.
Quarterbacks are not supposed to be as much of a threat on the ground as Fields has been in his 2nd year in the NFL. He broke the NFL regular season record for most rushing yards in a single game last week against Miami and totaled 147 rushing yards in a 31-30 loss over Detroit Sunday.
This was perhaps his best run of the day. A 67-yard house call.
Are you serious, @justnfields?! 🤯

He’s been the leading rusher on 3rd down across the season among any player. On Sunday, he made even more history.
Fields is the only quarterback in the Super Bowl era with 2 60+ yard touchdowns in the same season. We are barely halfway through the season, mind you.
