In his 17 seasons in the National Football League, quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick became the Webster's definition of"high level journeyman quarterback." A 2005 seventh round pick out of Harvard, Fitzpatrick played for nine teams across those 17 seasons, including a season in 2014 where he started 12 games for the Texans, his only season in Houston.

1. In his very first performance, as a rookie in 2005, Fitzpatrick came off the bench to engineer a second half comeback, down 24-3 against the Houston Texans! Fitzpatrick would throw a touchdown pass to Hall of Famer Isaac Bruce in the final 30 seconds of regulation to pull the Rams to within three points, and after an onside kick recovery, he engineered a game-tying field goal drive, before throwing a touchdown pass to Kevin Curtis for the game winner in overtime.

5. In 2017, Fitzpatrick was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and in 2018, with Jameis Winston out with a disciplinary suspension for conduct policy violations, Fitzpatrick would start the first four games of the season. In classic Fitzy fashion, in those four games, he threw for over 400 yards in the first three and 126 in the fourth one.
