WATCH: 5-star SEC QB target Justin Fields looked like the No. 1 player Friday night
Justin Fields, a dual-threat quarterback from Georgia, recently de-committed from Penn State and instantly became one of the most sought-after recruits in the country.
On Friday night in a scrimmage, the high school senior showed why 247Sports has him rated as the No. 1 overall player in the 2018 class.
As you can see in the video below, the 5-star prospect showed off a cannon arm and a mastery of the offense during the contest:

Not only did Fields dominate through the air, but he was great in the running game, too, as you can see here:

Georgia, Florida, Auburn and Alabama are among the SEC schools Fields is most interested in. He is also giving serious consideration to Florida State and Penn State.
Wherever he ends up, fans will be thrilled to see if his dominance translates to the college game.
