Justin Fields: I wanted to join Chiefs to learn from Patrick Mahomes

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Justin Fields says he wanted to join the Kansas City Chiefs in part to learn from Patrick Mahomes, even though the star quarterback is rehabbing from a knee injury.

"I wanted to come here because of the [Chiefs'] culture, because of Pat and to learn from him and Coach [Andy] Reid," Fields said Tuesday. "Just the winning, to be honest.

"We of course knew of each other, but we really didn't communicate before coming here. I'm excited to learn from [Mahomes]. I'm already kind of picking his brain a little bit and just observing how he goes about things in the meeting rooms, field and stuff like that. I'm excited, of course, to work with Coach Reid and [offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy] and all the guys on offense."
