4. Justin Fields comes from an athletic family.

Like most college and future pro-athletes, Fields’ family is full of athletes. It all starts with his dad, Ivant “Pablo” Fields. Before becoming a member of the Atlanta Police Department and before starting his family, he was a linebacker for Eastern Kentucky.

And Justin isn’t the only child of Ivant Fields that is a college athlete. The middle child of the Fields’ family is Jaiden Fields. Jaiden was a four-year starter for Harrison High School’s softball team, was a three-time first-team all-state in her career and ended her high school career with a State Championship. Jaiden saw limited playing time as a Redshirt Freshman this year but is expected to break out next season.

The youngest of the Fields’ trio is Jessica Fields. Jessica is still in middle school but is already showing out in a sport of her own: basketball. As a sixth-grader, Jessica led the Lady Hoyas to a 33-0 record and tournament championship. Jessica was also named tournament MVP. Expect big things coming from Jessica in the upcoming years.
