Washington Football Team's veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will reportedly not return in 2021, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.
Fitzpatrick, 38, suffered a hip subluxation in Week 1 that forced him to injured reserve and cost him most of the season. He opted against surgically repairing the hip, however, instead rehabbing it as he looked to return midway through the year.
Rapoport now reports the quarterback "has too long of a road back" to return in 2021 unless he shows vast improvement in his next MRI scheduled in a few weeks. It is still unlikely he returns in time to help the 2-6 squad.
