Bills GM: Fitzpatrick entrenched as starter
Ryan Fitzpatrick - QB - Buffalo Bills
May 11, 2012 - 5:10 PM ET

Bills GM Buddy Nix confirmed Friday that Ryan Fitzpatrick's starting job is secure, despite Buffalo's addition of Vince Young.

Young was signed strictly to compete with Tyler Thigpen for the backup job. While fans may clamor for Young if Fitzpatrick struggles, the Bills' organization remains confident in its incumbent starting quarterback. Fitzpatrick is entering a bit of a make-or-break year, however. He's owed $7.25 million in 2013, including an early-offseason roster bonus of $3 million.
