FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Ryan Fitzpatrick thinks he’ll be back under center Sunday.
The New York Jets quarterback just needs his sprained left knee to heal in a hurry.
“I’m definitely optimistic that I’ll be able to go out there and play,” he said Wednesday. “And I am going to do everything I can from now until then to make sure that happens.”
Fitzpatrick was injured Sunday at Miami in the third quarter of New York’s 27-23 loss, but returned to finish the game while wearing a brace on the knee.
