The Facts: Embroiled in a contract stalemate with the Jets throughout the offseason, Fitzpatrick declined to comment Wednesday before teeing off in the Harrah's Celebrity-Amateur Tournament. "Not right now," he said before walking to the first tee with his brother and caddie, Shaun Fitzpatrick.
Diehards Line:The Jets reportedly have offered the 33-year-old Fitzpatrick a three-year deal worth $24 million, including $15 million guaranteed. With a deal unresolved a week before the opening of training camp, the uncertainty surrounding the Jets' quarterbacking situation will continue. Geno Smith will work as the starter in Fitzpatrick's absence. Whether Smith remains in the role remains to be seen. Stay tuned.
