Fields main injury played out on national TV and created controversy but also showed toughness as he played through after receiving an in-game injection in the medical tent. The injection was likely for rib and/or hip pointer issues. A week before the draft is was reported that the Ohio St. product has epilepsy. The seizure disorder should not affect his draft stock and Fields should round out as a top-5 pick. Epilepsy is of no concern medically going forward and the same goes for his previous index finger fracture. Fields did enough in his final season to warrant a high draft selection as he lit up the Big 10 with 27 total touchdowns and a stellar 70.2 completion percentage. There does not seem to be any worries medically that will affect his draft status.
