NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — While the contract stalemate continues, the numbers of the offer made to Ryan Fitzpatrick by the New York Jets are just beginning to emerge.
A source familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Friday that the Jets made a three-year offer to Fitzpatrick in March that included $12 million in the first year. It was unclear, however, what the rest of the deal — which has been on the table since — was worth over the final two years.
Yahoo! Sports reported Sunday that the Jets’ full offer is worth a total of $24 million — with $6 million in each of the final two years.
