Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields has played alongside some serious talent throughout his career, including in college at Ohio State.
From a handful of NFL wide receivers who were stars in college, such as the New York Jets' Garrett Wilson and New Orleans Saints' Chris Olave, to star defensive players, Fields is no stranger to seeing dominance on the field.
Perhaps none were more dominant than defensive end Chase Young, who recorded a total of 30.5 sacks in his three seasons at Ohio State. Fields revealed on "The St. Brown Podcast" why Young is the greatest teammate of his career at any level.
"I've played with some dogs, bruh, I don't know," Fields said. "The best player I've ever played with was Chase Young in college. Nobody could stop him in college. They wouldn't even let me practice with the one defense. They wouldn't let the one D-line go against the one O-line because he could get back there whenever he wanted. Nobody was messing with Chase."
@stbrownpodcast Ohio State not letting Chase Young practice against the 1st string offense is INSANE. #nfl #collegefootball ♬ 24 (Instrumental) - DJB
Young was selected with the No. 2 overall pick by the Washington Commanders in the 2020 NFL Draft. By no means is his professional career a complete letdown, but he has yet to meet the expectations of his college reputation.
Young managed to tie his career-high in sacks last season with 7.5, but Washington traded him at the deadline to the San Francisco 49ers, where he tallied just 2.5 sacks. Young then signed with the Saints earlier this offseason.
While Young's time in the NFL is a bit underwhelming, Fields will never forget his pure dominance at Ohio State.
