Ryan Fitzpatrick Not Expected To Return This Season
3 years agoWashington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) is not expected to return in 2021, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The veteran quarterback exited Week 1 and hasn't taken the field since then. Rapoport writes that Fitzpatrick "is dealing with swelling and pain in the hip and groin area." He also notes that the 38-year-old is due for another MRI soon, which will give all parties more info surrounding his health, "but based on where his hip is, the belief is he won't see the field again this year." As such, Taylor Heinicke is likely in line to remain the starter for the rest of the season.
