New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields participated in an 11-on-11 practice Monday for the first time since dislocating a toe last Thursday.
Fields was restricted to individual QB drills this weekend and had been listed as day-to-day for the training camp sessions in Florham Park, N.J.
Head coach Aaron Glenn said Monday that Fields was “limited, but he was limited the way we wanted him to be limited.”
Fields, 26, inked a two-year, $40 million contract in March and the Jets are counting on him to replace the departed Aaron Rodgers.
“He made some good throws out there,” Glenn said. “And again, when Justin gets on the field, we’re gonna let him be who he is. And there were some things that he did today that I was very pleased with. But there’s also some things that he’s gotta get better at, too. He knows that.”
Fields was a 2021 first-round pick (11th overall) by Chicago and is 14-30 as a starter. He has passed for 7,780 yards with 45 touchdowns and 31 interceptions in 50 games for the Bears (2021-23) and Pittsburgh Steelers 2024). He has rushed for 2,509 yards and 19 touchdowns.
The Jets kick off the season on Sept. 7 against Rodgers and the Steelers in East Rutherford, N.J.
