Xpress And Fields Part Ways
The DFW Xpress and All Star QB Tre Fields have parted ways. After 2 years as the starting QB for the Xpress, both Fields and the Xpress management agreed that it was time for Fields to move on. The Allstar QB guided the Xpress to 14-6 record over the last 2 seasons, and guided the team to the 2009 semi final game in which the team lost to the eventual 2009 NMLF Champion, San Antonio Warriors. At the end of the 2009 season coach Vernon and Mr. Fields had a long conversation about Fields returning to the Xpress for a 3rd year and competing for the starting QB spot on the 2010 roster, Mr. Fields felt that he should not have to compete for the starting spot, since he was coming off an All Star season. Coach Vernon explained to Mr. Fields that his declining numbers over the last 2 season were the reason for the organization making the decision that he would have to compete for the starting QB position for the 2010 season. Mr. Fields decided to play summer ball for the Dallas Diesel, and guided them to the WFL championship where the Diesel lost to the Oklahoma Thunder. Coach Vernon believes Fields has 2 good years left in his strong and accurate arm, but the organization wants to move on and go with a younger and more focused QB. The Xpress would like to wish Mr. Fields good luck on his football future.
