Carson Palmer defends Ryan Fitzpatrick in his standoff against the Jets

Published Jul. 22, 2016 2:38 p.m. ET

Time marches on, Jets wideout Brandon Marshall is getting scared by Fitzpatrick's nonresponsiveness, and training camp opens in one week.

Fitzpatrick is coming off a career year in 2015 in which he threw Jets record 31 touchdown passes. Unfortunately he crumbled in a win-and-in Week 17 game against the Bills, and the 10-6 Jets missed the playoffs.

The Jets' standing offer to him is for three-years and $24 million with $12 million in the first year. Not exactly Brock Osweiler money (to name one recent free agent) but not bad.

It's possible that the Jets think that Geno Smith gives them a legit shot to win, too.
