Ryan Poles was asked why didn't Justin Fields work out in Chicago. (Entire interview is available at Fox 32 Chicago's YouTube Channel. Link below.)
@BarroomNetwork Seems to me the points to a systemic issue in the business in terms of QB development and the contract timeline plus economics
@BarroomNetwork This only makes me more angry, to be honest. I get that he’s also shielding responsibility from Fields, but I believe it’s acccurate. The organization dropped the ball and could have added offensive talent sooner. This should have been priority #1 after the roster tear down
@BarroomNetwork Justin is gone and he wasn't a very good quarterback and he is responsible for the opportunities he was given and even if you want to admit he had a hard Road he didn't navigate that road very well.. he wasn't good enough and that's his fault
@BarroomNetwork Just say "we wanted to reset the rookie contract clock"
@BarroomNetwork it’s really refreshing to hear him call it like it is instead of trying to sugarcoat or deflect.
@BarroomNetwork Bc you failed getting him a HC/OC that is legit and reputable and tanked his second year of development
