Penn State has landed its quarterback in the Class of 2018, and it’s a good one. Kennesaw (Ga.) Harrison dual-threat signal-caller Justin Fields announced his commitment to the Nittany Lions on Thursday afternoon.

The 6-foot-2.5, 221-pound prospect chose the Nittany Lions over offers from Georgia, Michigan State, North Carolina, Northwestern, Tennessee, Virginia Tech and others. He becomes the sixth commitment for the Nittany Lions in what is shaping up to be a loaded Class of 2018.

Fields is a threat with his arm and his legs. He threw for 2,253 yards and 18 touchdowns this season. A powerful runner, Fields added for 977 yards and 14 touchdowns on the ground.

He is the No. 182 overall prospect in the Class of 2018 and the No. 8 dual-threat quarterback nationally according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. 247Sports ranks him as the No. 100 overall prospect in his class and the No. 4 dual-thread quarterback in the country.

The Nittany Lions offered Fields after watching him throw in person this summer at camp. He took an unofficial visit for the season-opening game against Kent State and returned in November for the Iowa game.

Fields was No. 1 on Lions247 Class of 2018 Big Board this week.
