Excitement over Justin Fields’ two-year, $40 million agreement with the New York Jets extended all the way to Dubai, where the quarterback celebrated joining his third NFL team on Tuesday night.

Video of the festivities went viral on X as the 26-year-old is seen watching servers dancing on the long tables while holding sparklers. And like many other diners in the crowded restaurant, Fields was recording to the performance on his phone.

No food can be seen, so it’s impossible to say what Fields and his friends were feasting on, but the former Ohio State star said in 2023 that he’s a pescatarian.

Fields was famously pᴀssed over by the Jets four years ago when the team drafted BYU’s Zach Wilson with the second-overall pick. Wilson failed to meet expectations and recently agreed to a backup role in Miami after spending the 2024 season with Denver.

Fields likely steps in ahead of veteran backup Tyrod Taylor as New York’s starter in place of Aaron Rodgers after the Jets announced last month they are moving forward without the four-time NFL MVP following two seasons. Rodgers, who hasn’t announced whether he’ll play a 21st NFL season, is expected to be released.

The deal for Fields includes $30 million guaranteed, according to the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the agreement wasn’t announced by the team. NFL Network first reported the deal between Fields and the Jets.

The Jets also agreed to terms with former Baltimore Ravens cornerback Brandon Stephens on a three-year, $36 million deal and former Jacksonville safety Andre Cisco on a one-year, $10 million contract, according to a person with knowledge of the contracts who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the agreements weren’t announced.

The 26-year-old Fields spent last season with Pittsburgh after playing his first three NFL seasons with the Chicago Bears, who drafted him in the first round – the 11th overall pick – in 2021 out of Ohio State.

New York now will hope that Fields can revive his career with the Jets, who have a new regime in coach Aaron Glenn and general manager Darren Mougey. Fields will be reunited with wide receiver Garrett Wilson, his former college teammate, in an offense that also includes running backs Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.

Fields has pᴀssed for 7,780 yards and 45 touchdowns with 31 interceptions in 50 games, including 44 starts in four seasons. He has rushed for 2,509 yards and 19 scores.

The agreement with Fields came a day after the Jets reached terms with linebacker Jamien Sherwood on a three-year deal worth $45 million that includes $30 million guaranteed, keeping one of their defensive leaders on the roster.

Fields had an inconsistent start to his NFL career with the Bears, throwing 40 TD pᴀsses along with 30 interceptions in 38 starts over three seasons. Chicago had the No. 1 overall pick in last year’s draft, and rather than stick with Fields they focused on replacing him under center.

Fields was then traded to Pittsburgh for a sixth-round pick in this year’s draft and the Bears selected Caleb Williams to be their new franchise quarterback.

Fields was expected to be the Steelers’ backup to Russell Wilson last season, but Wilson strained a calf and Fields started the first six games. He helped Pittsburgh to a 4-2 start with five TD pᴀsses and five TD runs and just one INT before giving way to Wilson, who recovered from his injury and helped the Steelers reach the playoffs.

Meanwhile, Fields threw just one more pᴀss the rest of the season.

With new offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand , the Jets will try to balance Fields’ arm strength with his athleticism and ability to make plays with his legs.

The addition of Stephens gives the Jets a replacement in their secondary for D.J. Reed, who agreed to a three-year, $48 million deal with Detroit . Stephens was a third-round pick by the Ravens out of SMU in 2021 and was a starter for the bulk of his four seasons in Baltimore, first as a safety before moving to cornerback in his second year.

The 27-year-old Stephens likely will slide into a starting role with New York at cornerback opposite Sauce Gardner in the defense for Glenn and coordinator Steve Wilks. Stephens has two career interceptions and 32 pᴀsses defensed.

Cisco is a New York native who was a third-round selection of the Jaguars out of Syracuse in 2021. The 24-year-old safety started most of the last three seasons for Jacksonville. He has eight career interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown, and 24 pᴀsses defensed in 63 games, including 47 starts.

The Jets also announced they placed a right-of-first-refusal tender on restricted free agent safety Tony Adams, which means they can match any offers from opposing teams. The tender is for one year and $3.2 million. Adams has started most of the last two seasons for New York.
