Early life

Fields was born on March 11, 1998, in Taylor, Texas. He attended Taylor High School, playing two seasons of varsity football as well as basketball and track. He was a 14-4A first-team all-district selection and was named second-team all-Central Texas by the Austin American-Statesman. In his senior year, Fields compiled 101 tackles, four interceptions and eight forced fumbles.^[1]

College career

Fields committed to Texas Tech. As a freshman in 2016, he redshirted and did not play, being a member of the scout team. He became a starter at cornerback in 2017, appearing in all 13 games (11 as a starter). He recorded a total of 51 tackles, placing fifth on the team, and made two fumble recoveries, two forced fumbles and one interception. His fumble recovery total placed first in the conference and 26th nationally. He was named Big 12 Conference Newcomer of the Week after making an interception return touchdown against Oklahoma State.^[1]

Fields started all 12 games as a sophomore in 2018. He recorded a total of 38 tackles, including 2.5 for-loss, as well as 11 passes defended. He ranked second on the team in passes defended and led the school with two fumbles recovered. At the end of the year, he was named honorable mention all-conference by the Big 12 coaches. In 2019, Fields started nine games at cornerback and played in a total of 10, compiling 54 tackles, a mark which placed fifth on Texas Tech. He also had the team lead with five passes broken up and was second with three interceptions made. He was named an honorable mention all-conference selection again that season.^[1]

As a senior, Fields started six games and made 31 total tackles, as well as one forced fumble, one recovery, and 11 passes broken up. He ranked fourth in the FBS in passes defended per-game and was named honorable mention all-conference by the coaches, as well as fourth-team all-conference by Phil Steele's magazine. He elected to return to the team in 2021 as a fifth-year player, as he was given an extra year of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic.^[1]

In the 2021 season, Fields played in 12 games and made 50 tackles. He also made a team-leading 11 pass breakups and was named second-team all-conference at the end of the year, marking the fourth time he made the team. He was given an opportunity to play in the East–West Shrine Bowl after the regular season concluded. He was one of three Texas Tech players to be invited to the NFL Combine.^[1] Fields ended his college career with a total of 224 tackles, 13.5 for-loss, four forced fumbles and four recoveries, four interceptions and 45 total passes defended.
