With the Texans planning to sign both Ryan Mallett and former Browns passer Brian Hoyer, Fitzpatrick looms as a strong candidate for release. If (and when) that happens, Fitzpatrick would emerge as a top target for Gang Green, according to NFL Media's Albert Breer.
The Jets showed interest in signing Hoyer, but Breer was told that New York -- with plenty of money to spend -- is higher on Fitzpatrick. Why? The Amish Rifle is bound to be less expensive than Hoyer and would land in Gotham with a built-in knowledge of play-caller Chan Gailey's offense. Fitzpatrick played under Gailey for three seasons with the Bills, doing enough to earn a six-year, $59 million contract extension in 2011 -- a pact the mediocre Fitzpatrick never came close to seeing through.
The Jets are down to slim pickings on the ghastly free-agent quarterback market after watching Josh McCown, Hoyer, Mallett and Matt Cassel go elsewhere.
The mind boggles
