The New York Jets and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick ended their five-month contract dispute Wednesday.
[b]Wholesale Football Jerseys China[/b] . The two sides finalized a one-year, $12 million contract on the eve of the teams first training camp practice, sources told ESPN.Another $3 million in incentives are included in the deal, which could boost the value to $15 million, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.The Jets increased their offer Wednesday from $9 million to $12 million, a source said, and gave Fitzpatrick until 7 p.m. ET to take the deal or the team would be moving on.The 11th-hour agreement culminated one of the strangest chapters in team history -- a long stalemate that dominated the Jets offseason.The Jets wanted Fitzpatrick and he wanted them, yet he refused to sign the offer that sat on the table for months -- three years, $24 million, including a total guarantee of $16 million.It definitely was a long process, Fitzpatrick said Thursday. After coming to the realization that it wasnt going to get done right away and that it was going to take some time, I tried my best to put it out of my mind and tried to live life normally. But it was hard with people coming up to me and asking about the contract, people texting me. It was hovering ... looming over my head for five, six months. In the end, Im happy the way it turned out.To make the Fitzpatrick signing official, the Jets will have to create room under the salary cap. They have only $9.1 million in cap space, according to NFL Players Association records.The situation got weird Wednesday, when players said they were instructed by team brass not to discuss Fitzpatrick with the media.After sitting out the offseason, Fitzpatrick is way behind, but he is expected to be the opening day quarterback. Jets coach Todd Bowles maintained throughout the stalemate that Fitzpatrick, who set a franchise record with 31 touchdown passes last season, would be the starter if he re-signed.Geno Smith, who was replaced by Fitzpatrick last preseason after having his jaw broken by a teammates sucker punch in the locker room, returns to his No. 2 role. Rookie Christian Hackenberg and second-year quarterback Bryce Petty will compete for the No. 3 job, although its possible the Jets will keep all four quarterbacks on the 53-man roster.Fitzpatrick had no other offers during free agency, yet the Jets were reluctant to hand the No. 1 job to Smith, the nominal starter in the offseason. The result was a staring contest, with each side waiting for the other to blink.Knowing his comfort level with the coaches, the players and the city, the organization was quietly confident it would re-sign Fitzpatrick, 33, a career journeyman who last season led the Jets to their best offensive season since 1998. He became a popular leader in the locker room, fueling a pro-Fitzpatrick sentiment throughout the impasse.Several players, namely wide receivers Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker, were outspoken in their support for Fitzpatrick, perhaps putting pressure on the organization to complete a deal. Team officials were transparent, saying from the outset they wanted him back.Marshall took to Twitter to congratulate Fitzpatrick, posting a photo presumably shot after the quarterbacks deal was agreed to Wednesday.Fitzpatrick was stung by the teams contract proposal, telling friends he would never accept a deal that included a total of $12 million in the second and third years -- essentially backup money. The offer included up to $12 million in incentives, but he didnt bite. He made $3.25 million last season.He didnt renew the lease for the New Jersey home he rented last season, fueling speculation about his future. He also stopped returning texts from teammates, according to Marshall, who said he was starting to worry.As much as they appreciate his 2015 performance, the Jets view Fitzpatrick as a bridge quarterback, a caretaker until Hackenberg or Petty is ready to take over. That led to a sharp difference of opinion at the bargaining table. Fitzpatrick initially sought $15 million per year, as he tried to piggyback on the Sam Bradford and Brock Osweiler deals with the Philadelphia Eagles and Houston Texans, respectively.The Jets flirted with free-agent quarterbacks?Robert Griffin III?and Brian Hoyer, but talks never reached the serious stage.Fitzpatrick, playing for his sixth team, arrived last year in a trade with the Texans. His career record as a starter is 43-61-1 in 11 seasons with no playoff appearances. He was on the verge of breaking the postseason slump last year, but he tainted his storybook season by throwing three interceptions in a season-ending loss to the Buffalo Bills.

From Pierre LeBrun While Anaheim GM Bob Murray said earlier this season he was not going to trade Jonas Hiller despite the fact hes an unrestricted free agent on July 1, some sources have told TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun that Murray might be willing to move another goalie.Canadian Alexis (Ally-Gator) Davis says she is star-struck just to be part of the UFC. But the 28-year-old from Port Colborne, Ont., wont feel like a card-carrying member of MMAs largest promotion until she steps into the cage Saturday night at UFC 161 in Winnipeg. Davis (13-5) takes on English veteran Rosi (The Surgeon) Sexton on the MTS Centre card headlined by light-heavyweights Dan Henderson and Rashad Evans. A pro since 2007, Davis has won five of her last six fights. The only blemish during that run came in her March 2012 rematch in Strikeforce with Victorias Sarah Kaufman which she lost by majority decision. Davis went 2-1 in Strikeforce, which was bought by the UFC, and then signed a multi-fight deal with the UFC. Kaufman, who is slated to face Sara McMann on Aug. 28 in Indianapolis, and Davis are part of the 13-woman bantamweight division currently ruled by (Rowdy) Ronda Rousey. Davis, who has moved to San Jose to train, says not much has changed since her switch to the UFC. "My family still treats me exactly the same way, still gives me a hard time," she said with a chuckle. "Im a pretty laidback person ... I kind of stay under the radar. It makes me want to blush when people say Youre a UFC fighter and I say yeah. I dont go round bragging about it because for me I dont really consider myself a (UFC) fighter until Im in that ring. I havent had that yet. "Once I experience that, the reality will start to sink in. But pretty much most things have remained the same." A veteran of Strikeforce and Invicta, she got a taste of the UFC when the promotion flew her to Anaheim and then Winnipeg for news conferences. While in Anaheim,, she got to see her first UFC show live as Rousey submitted Liz Carmouche in the first round at UFC 157 in February.
[b]Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys[/b]. She was also given tickets to the April show in San Jose. Davis is no stranger to fighting in Winnipeg and welcomes her return to the Manitoba capital. "For me its huge," Davis said. "Obviously its my debut in the UFC but Winnipeg is where I had my very first fight against (Sarah) Kaufman so its kind of interesting that Im heading back there." Davis evened her Winnipeg record at 1-1 in 2008 when she submitted Kate Roy in the first round. Saturday marks her first fight in Canada since. The 35-year-old Sexton (13-2) is a British pioneer of the sport, who has moved up in weight to take advantage of the UFC opportunity at 135 pounds. "Shes a very dynamic fighter," said Davis. "Shes got endless cardio. ... Shes like the Energizer Bunny." Sexton is equally complimentary. "I actually like Alexis a lot," she said. "I think shes fantastic fighter. Shes got some really good grappling. Im excited to be fighting her because I think its a great challenge. Its going to be a really interesting fight to see how her grappling matches up against my grappling." Davis, who has black belts in both traditional and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, takes pride in her improvement as a standup fighter. She has gone from rushing in like an Exocet missile to picking when to attack, from what range, and working in head movement. The five-foot-five Davis started kick-boxing with a friend, then made the move to jiu-jitsu at 18. She switched to MMA after watching someone else in her gym training.
