WR Malachi Fields on the team’s resiliance: ‘No matter what, we’re going to fight’

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Was there a moment there for Malachi where when he went down, you kind of go like, not even one, you know what I mean? Like some of the injury issues you guys have dealt with this year?

Malachi Fields (0:07)

I don't think we flinched at all. I think we just stepped up to the challenge and was prepared for the moment to make a play. Jameis did a good job coming in there and just commanding the huddle and leading us down there for a score.

SPEAKER_1 (0:19)

Do you think Jameis kind of created a spark after the second quarter of scoreless?

Malachi Fields (0:23)

I think definitely, especially, you know, coming out after halftime and going down and getting that score after, you know, JJ going out, just coming in there and leading us. And like I said, not flinching, just being resilient, the whole offense.

SPEAKER_1 (0:35)

What do you say to anything about this team, Akali, that you guys, it hasn't necessarily been pretty, but you're still sitting there 5-2-1-1?

Malachi Fields (0:43)

I think that just goes to show the heart of this team, the resilience of the team, and how no matter what, we're going to fight.

SPEAKER_3 (0:51)

Malachi, I don't know how many times when you were in college, you had to play four days, but you got to get back now to play Washington on Thursday. What about the challenge of having to turn around so quickly after a big, divisional, emotional victory?

Malachi Fields (1:03)

Yeah, I don't think that's ever happened to me in college, but I'm ready for the challenge, excited for it. You know, just got to get healthy and get the game plan ready to go for this Thursday.
