Overtime, which is the leading brand for the next generation of sports fans, has partnered with GMC to launch OT Films, and one of its first projects was about Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Justin Fields.
In about 25 minutes they take us from the Fields era to high school when I struggled to stay on the field, to finally play, but to be a low-ranking potential, to be one of the most sought-after recruits of all time. His personal rivalry with Trevor Lawrence, who grew up and played about half an hour away, pushed him to be the best player he could be and, when they faced off face to face in the Elite quarterback field. 11, it was Fields who came out with the MVP.
The first part of this documentary ends with his brief time in Georgia and what led him to leave there for the state of Ohio.
