Ryan Fitzpatrick Handles the Jacksonville Jaguars Again

Journeyman quarterback Ryan Fitzapatrick has achieved a rare feat as he carried the Miami Dolphins to a 31-13 NFL victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The 37-year-old, who has played for eight teams since being drafted as a back-up in 2005, became the first NFL player since 1950 to notch at least one win for six teams against a single opponent.

”Fitz is out of his mind,” tight end Mike Gesicki said. ”He’s (37) and playing like he’s 23. You see the fun he has. After I scored, we came off the field chest bumping and screaming. It’s so much fun to play with him.”

”It’s why I still play,” Fitzpatrick said. ”I enjoy playing, especially when you’re having success. I feel like the luckiest guy in the world sometimes getting to go outside and play football with my friends.”

”As a group we just didn’t get it done,” said Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew, who completed 30 of 42 passes for 275 yards and two turnovers. ”We had too many mistakes. That’s plain and simple.”

Fitzpatrick scored a few plays later as Jacksonville allowed a touchdown on the game’s opening drive for the third straight week.

”We’ve got to do a better job of executing early on,” Jaguars coach Doug Marrone said.

”You will rarely see me slide, and today I slid,” he said. ”That may not happen again all year, throwing a block and getting hit, that helps me get into the game a little bit.”
