Ryan Fitzpatrick Steers Questions Away From Contract With Crazy Hair

By Rahul Lal

Even though Ryan Fitzpatrick's stalemate with the Jets has ended with a 1 year/$12 million fully-guaranteed deal, it seems as though him and his barber are still working on negotiating an appropriate deal.

Fitzpatrick, along with the rest of the Jets, returned to training camp today and was sporting a hairstyle fitting the quarterback's wild beard. While much attention has been on Fitzpatrick over the last couple months due to his contract situation, he revealed that the haircut could give reporters and fans alike something else to talk about.

Twitter did what they do best and provided some pretty hilarious reactions.

One person even offered an opinion on what he can do when he cuts his hair.

Crazy hair or not, Fitzpatrick is still expected to strap on his helmet and play in the Jets' preseason opener at MetLife Stadium against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday, Aug. 11. The Jets will kick off the season on Sept. 11 at home against the Cincinnati Bengals.

We are still waiting on the date for an upcoming haircut, which Fitzpatrick has mentioned might coming in the near future.
