Ryan Fitzpatrick will be remembered as a quarterback who never played in the NFL postseason but he is the quarterback with the most passing yards and passing touchdowns without playoff appearances. His first team was the Los Angeles Rams in 2005 and his last franchise were the Washington Commanders in 2021.

Ryan had two nicknames during his NFL career, one was Fitzmagic and the other Fitztragic, the first was when he played well and the team won, but when things went wrong and Fitzpatrick suffered from inconsistency people called him Fitztragic.
