I would be crying too if I were offered a three-year, $24 million contract, making $8 million in salary per year.
After a five-month long wait of contract negotiations between the New York Jets and veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, the two sides finally agreed to a deal worth $12 million for one season.
Fitzpatrick recalls on the initial deal the Jets offered, and he explains why he couldn’t even look in the mirror if he accepted such an offer.

First of all, I hope Ryan Fitzpatrick realizes he’s Ryan Fitzpatrick. I’m surprised he was able to get $12 million in salary.
