Jets name Ryan Fitzpatrick starter for Week 12
New York Jets quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been named the team's Week 12 starter.
"He's healthy," head coach Todd Bowles enthusiastically said. "He's been our starter. ... We can do more things with him. I don't give away jobs." The reality is, Fitz wouldn't be starting if either Bryce Petty or Christian Hackenberg had done anything positive on the practice field. Fitz has been a perpetual-turnover machine, but Gang Green has rightly surmised he gives the team its best chance of not getting completely embarrassed.
Among the 35 quarterbacks with 100 drop backs or more in 2016, Fitzpatrick's -0.01 Passing Net Expected Points per drop back ranks 31st.
