WATCH: Ryan Fitzpatrick has retired after 17 seasons in the NFL
Apr. 20, 2024 – 02:53 – Ryan Fitzpatrick is calling it a career after 17 well-traveled seasons in the NFL.
Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is one of the most well-traveled players the NFL has ever seen. The Arizona native was taken in the seventh and final round of the 2005 NFL Draft by the then-St. Louis Rams. In being the 250th pick overall, Fitzpatrick should have had a professional football career that amounted to a cup of coffee in the big time. However, he was able to stretch out his tenure in the league in ways no NFL expert could have ever imagined.
