Jets QB Ryan Fitzpatrick says owner, GM, coaching staff don’t believe in him

Ryan Fitzpatrick was back under center after Geno Smith was injured.

Ryan Fitzpatrick didn’t mince words when discussing the Jets’ quarterback battle on Sunday. 

Fitzpatrick was benched in favor of Geno Smith but Smith was injured in the first half and Fitzpatrick was at the helm for a comeback victory. 

After the game, Fitzpatrick said more than once that he feels the team brass doesn’t believe in him. 

Fitzpatrick openly says in his postgame press conference that Todd Bowles, Mike Maccagnan, Woody Johnson lost believe in him (in RF's eyes).
