Report: Fitzpatrick House up for Rent

By Glenn Naughton

With training camp just around the corner and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Jets still embroiled in a lengthy contract dispute, Daryl Slater of NJ.com is reporting that the quarterback’s home is now up for rent

This could be interpreted one of two ways.

1. Fitzpatrick isn’t optimistic that a deal will be struck and is preparing to move on, or:
2. Fitzpatrick knows that a large pay-day  with some stability is just around the corner and he’s looking to upgrade his sizable family to a bigger place than what they settled for when he showed up last season with a much smaller contract.

Players are scheduled to report on July 27th and the team recently freed up cap room by coming to terms with defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson, a move that could have set the wheels in motion to getting a deal done with Fitzpatrick before camp kicks off on the 28th.
