Durability Story · Watch

Open Justin Fields' injury ledger and you keep seeing Right Thumb, Knee, and Ribs. That repetition is the story. Evidence check: injury reports across 5 different seasons; 6 games missed in the last three (2025: 3, 2024: 1, and 2023: 2); 2025 was the rough one at 3 missed; longest on-report absence ran 2 weeks in 2023 (Wk 7–8); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, Justin is startable but fragile: keep a handcuff or streaming backup ready when the next soft-tissue note lands.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
