Ryan Fitzpatrick got released by the Bills. The Amish rifle is without a home. Someone will pick him up, he’s a quality backup.
The world may forget about Ryan Fitzpatrick, but I never will. Always liked the guy, even if he wasn’t very good. I just wish I could grow a beard like that. The Bills are stupid for letting him go, not because he’s starter material, but because they only saved about 450 thousand dollars towards the Salary Cap. For the money he is being paid (too much) you can’t let a guy like that walk when the money you will save will be nill. Now Fitzy gets to strut around like a man with lots of money while the Bills save nothing worthwhile when they could have just benched him and had a quality backup.
Same old Bills.
Goofy move for the Bills. This is just speculation but I think Fitzmagic is going home to Arizona. If he wanted to get hit less the Amish life would probably be better though.
They’re not going anywhere this season, and taking the accelerated cap hit now gives them more room to maneuver later on. If I thought for a second that they actually had a viable long-term plan, this would be a good move.
I just feel bad for the AFC East. Both the Jets (kinda) and Bills are in restructuring mode, and it looks like both New England and Miami are gearing up to beat the snot out of them. Granted, I bet they’re glad they aren’t the Cards.
Fitz brought us our first win against the Pats in years. Farewell, you magnificent bastard, I wear your jersey with pride!
