Justin Fields will start at quarterback for the New York Jets on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Coach Aaron Glenn again withheld a public announcement during the week after previously leaning toward Tyrod Taylor, who was a late scratch before Fields led New York’s first win in Week 8. Fields threw for 244 yards and a touchdown in a 39-38 victory over the Bengals and remains the NFL’s only qualified passer without an interception, despite a 29th-ranked Total QBR. Owner Woody Johnson’s recent criticism added to the week’s noise.
