Both the Jets and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick would like to work out a contract for 2016 and according to general manager Mike Maccagnan talks will open up “in the near future.”<\/p>\n

“We have time, obviously, before free agency,” Maccagnan said via the Newark Star-Ledger<\/a>. “Obviously, myself, everybody in the organization feels very strongly about this.”<\/p>\n

In his first season as the Jets signal caller the journeyman had the best season of his career. Fitzpatrick totaled 3,905 yards and a 31:15 TD\/INT ratio.<\/p>\n
