The Washington Football Team is in the search of a new quarterback. In 2020, Alex Smith had an impressive comeback season and towards the end of the regular season, his performances were instrumental in them sealing a playoff berth. However, if the team wants to continue to build on their momentum, they will need a solution, even if it is a short-term one.
One analyst believes veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is the key for them.
NFL analyst, Myles Simmons, spoke recently about Washington’s search for a new quarterback. He believes that Miami Dolphins‘ Ryan Fitzpatrick could be a good choice for them at the moment. He is an experienced veteran who showed this season that he can do a good job running the offense. Furthermore, he can help any young quarterback that they draft acclimatize to the NFL.

“They could probably use a veteran quarterback to come in and run the offense effectively. I think we’ve seen Ryan Fitzpatrick do that in a number of different places. He is a steady veteran that can come in and run the offense if necessary. If they’ve got another quarterback that they like, they can put him in after a certain point, especially if they draft one. But Ryan Fitzpatrick can at least get the season started for you.”
