Ryan Fitzpatrick should take the money and run back home.
It turns out this isn’t a lowball offer after all from the Jets — one year, $12 million guaranteed, $36 million over three years with incentives. It is considerably higher than the $8 million ballpark figure league executives guessed would be on the table when this impasse between club and quarterback began.
The Jets’ offer, learned of by The Post’s Mark Cannizzaro, is no insult that would force Fitzpatrick to slink back with his tail between his legs. It is a fair offer that gives Fitzpatrick standing as the leader of a team crying out for his leadership.
