Ryan Fitzpatrick's top-10 offensive players that contributed to his passing yard totals
Ryan Fitzpatrick's longest stint on any team has spanned four seasons. He spent four years with the Buffalo Bills. Fitzpatrick feels like a bandaid when it comes to playing quarterback in the NFL. Teams sign him when their quarterbacks get injured and then once their regular quarterback is healed, they let him go.
During his time with eight different NFL franchises, Ryan Fitzpatrick has received major contributions from 10 different wide receivers.
That's why it's not surprising to see him join the Washington Football Team after spending two seasons with the Dolphins. Washington will most likely keep him this year and let him hit free agency next off-season. It's unknown if Fitzpatrick plans on making Washington his last stop in his NFL career.
He's played 16 years in the NFL and has started 146 games out of a possible 165. That number is bound to rise, with Fitzpatrick most likely to be named the starting quarterback in Washington for 2021. Ryan Fitzpatrick had this to say about when he'll hang up his cleats and retire from the NFL.
"At this point if I'm not out there playing, if I'm not considered a starter, if they're not going to give me an opportunity to compete, then that's the point where I'll probably hand them up."
Fitzpatrick made the statement when he made an appearance on The Ross Tucker Football Podcast. It's hard to say how well Ryan Fitzpatrick will do in Washington.
The Washington Football Team added former Ohio State athlete Curtis Samuel to team up with former teammate Terry McLaurin. Washington's defense has a ton of talent and could be the reason why they make the playoffs in 2021.
