I'd love for them to find a way to get him in the HoF, or like some way to keep in the NFL books. A true journeyman who brought some incredible games (...and some forgettable) to every team he played for. Even though he didn't take the Jets to the playoffs, I'll never forget watching him beat the Pats in OT from the nosebleeds.

Nah. If Earl Morrall isn't in Canton, Fitzmajiks won't even sniff it. Love the guy, but his legacy is a byproduct of the meme/internet humor era. If he had played in the 80's like Deberg who had a similar career he's not talked about as fondly as he is now. Great story though.

Not bad for a 7th round pick.

Had he been drafted just a round sooner perhaps he would’ve ended up as the GOAT. Seems he had too much Patrick and not enough Magic.

Just playing, he had a great career for sure. Wish him well in retirement. Might have to give Amazon some attention.

Where it all began for those who don't know. Strongly encouraged to watch that if you aren't a Rams or Texans fan (or if you and forgot this crazy *** game).

In hindsight, it was actually pretty indicative of what his career would be

His first three games were a microcosm of his career. I remember that Texans/Rams game, and Fitz looked remarkable. Then a lackluster performance against the Redskins. Then against the Vikings he fell flat on his face throwing 5 INTs.
