  Former Ohio State football quarterback Justin Fields has told NFL teams that he is managing the neurological disorder epilepsy, per a report by NFL Network. According to Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, doctors believe Fields will outgrow the condition, as others in his family have. The report said Fields has managed epilepsy with medication and it does not affect his athletic performance. According to the epilepsy foundation, it is the fourth most common neurological disorder. It affects 3.4 million people in the United States and 65 million worldwide.

The condition is associated with uncontrollable seizures, however, those can vary in frequency and intensity from person to person. Fields was not known to have suffered any problems due to the condition during his Ohio State football career. A year ago at this time, Fields was expected to be the first or second quarterback taken in next week's NFL Draft. Now he has fallen to fifth at the position on some draft boards. It is unknown whether his medical disclosure has affected any teams' evaluation. - Cleveland Plain Dealer
