Manish Mehta talks Ryan Fitzpatrick's return to Jets : Daily News Sports Podcast

Fitz is back!

In our first episode of the Daily News Sports Talk podcast after our summer hiatus, we welcome Jets columnist Manish Mehta back to the show to break down Ryan Fitzpatrick's one-year, $12 million contract.

Why did it take so long to get the deal done? How long was Fitz willing to sit on the sidelines? Can we declare a winner between the veteran quarterback and Jets GM Mike Maccagnan?

We also dive into Geno Smith's response to Fitzpatrick's return and his future with the Jets.

Other topics include what we can expect out of Darrelle Revis this year and how much new running back Matt Forte has left in the tank.

Plus, with the conclusion of the political conventions, we quiz Mehta about which members of the Jets are most likely to run for public office after their NFL careers.
