Ryan Fitzpatrick has announced that he is retiring after 17 NFL seasons.
Fitzpatrick was drafted by the Rams in the seventh round of the 2005 draft. Little known fact: he went to Harvard. After three seasons in St. Louis where he attempted just 76 total passes, he played one year for the Bengals, making 12 starts. He then joined the Bills, recording three 3,000+ yard passing seasons in four years. In 2011, he set a career-high with 23 TD passes, connecting with Stevie Johnson for 1,004 yards and seven TDs. He played for the Titans in 2013, then for the Texans in 2014, starting 21 total games. At 33 years old, he had his first winning season as a 16-game starter for Todd Bowles era Jets. Fitzpatrick's former Bills coach Chan Gailey served as offensive coordinator. The Jets finished 10-6 but missed the playoffs. Following a 17-interception down year in 2016, Fitzpatrick moved on to Tampa Bay. He spent the next four years frequently outshining first-round quarterbacks. When Jameis Winston struggled in 2017-18, Fitzpatrick was there to hit Mike Evans or DeSean Jackson with a long TD. When the Josh Rosen rehabilitation project failed, Fitzpatrick revived DeVante Parker's flagging career. When Tua Tagovailoa struggled as a rookie, Fitzpatrick was against at the ready, delivering the third-highest yards per attempt of his career. In 2021, Washington brought in the 39-year-old Fitzpatrick as their starting quarterback. He suffered a hip injury in Week 1, which ultimately ended his season. Fitzpatrick will be remembered for his colorful off-field personality, his trust in his best receivers to make plays, and his ability to pour fantasy rocket fuel onto passing games throughout the league. Fitzpatrick texted his teammates "Forever grateful for the magical ride." It certainly was that.
