Ryan Fitzpatrick had the best season of his career for the New York Jets in 2015, and wants to be compensated accordingly in free agency. Reports indicate that Fitzpatrick and the Jets are finding it absolutely impossible to get on the same page in contract negotiations, and could be headed for a messy divorce. If he indeed leaves New York, here are the five teams he will most likely end up with.

Colin Kaepernick recently asked the 49ers for permission to seek a trade despite the fact that the franchise publicly stated he will be on its roster next season. This is an extremely fluid situation, but if Kaepernick is indeed moved, Fitzpatrick would be a decent stop-gap over the next few seasons in San Francisco.
4. Los Angeles Rams

The Rams are in deep trouble with Nick Foles under center, and must be contemplating alternatives considering they want to make as solid a first impression as possible in Los Angeles. Fitzpatrick certainly wouldn't turn the Rams into Super Bowl contenders, but they'd be competitive over the life of his contract.
3. Cleveland Browns

With Johnny Manziel expected to be released on Wednesday, the Cleveland Browns will likely be in the market for two quarterbacks this offseason. Don't put it past the Browns to sign a guy like Fitzpatrick and still take their quarterback of the future at No. 2 overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.
2. Houston Texans

While it might be hard to imagine Fitzpatrick returning to Houston after just one season away, there's no denying the Texans would have been in much better hands with him under center instead of Brian Hoyer during their AFC Wild Card matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. It's a longshot, but stranger things have occurred in the NFL.
1. Denver Broncos

Sure, the Broncos recently offered Brock Osweiler a three-year, $45 million deal. However, a video which reportedly shows Osweiler in a physical altercation with a woman (and a pizza) circulated on Monday, and he could have some legal troubles coming in his future. Fitzpatrick would be a perfect fit on a defense-first team that showcases two of the most dynamic wide receivers in the league in Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders.
