Ex-NFL QB Sarcastically Claps Back Over Criticism of Bo Nix
You can say a lot of things about Ryan Fitzpatrick. One thing you can’t say? He’s not hilariously self-aware.
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick took to social media on Sunday to humorously respond to criticism from former teammate Aqib Talib regarding Bo Nix's performance in a recent game. Fitzpatrick, who called Nix "almost disrespectful to the QB position," was indirectly critiquing himself during his video response. In the skit, Fitzpatrick mimicked a FaceTime call with Talib, where he playfully defended himself.
Despite the playful exchange, even professional commentators praised Fitzpatrick's self-awareness and humor. Dallas Wings commentator Mike Leslie commented, "Lol, everyone should strive for this level of self-awareness and hilarity," while Denver media member Vic Lombardi said, "This is tremendous work." Even Jason Kelce, a former Philadelphia Eagles center, chimed in, stating, "I love this kind of mature level-headed discourse #respect."
