FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Ryan Fitzpatrick not only got to meet Larry David on Wednesday, but he delivered a well-timed one-liner at the “Seinfeld” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” creator’s expense.
David recently tweaked the Jets quarterback, saying Fitzpatrick should shave his overgrown bushy beard, and said he should be the Jets offensive coordinator. On Wednesday, he finally got to see his team in action. The sitcom star watched much of practice alongside owner Woody Johnson. Though David didn’t speak to reporters, he did chat with Fitzpatrick, a self-described “Seinfeld guy.”
“We hashed it out,” the quarterback joked, when asked about his recently-trimmed facial hair.
