Running back Matt Forte admitted Monday there was apprehension about signing with a team whose quarterback is a free agent, but he sounded hopeful that Ryan Fitzpatrick will end up starting for the New York Jets.
"Based off last year's production, and the way Brandon [Marshall] has talked about the chemistry he's built with Ryan, I would expect and hope it would be him, just based off what they had last year," Forte said in a conference call with reporters.
The Jets and Fitzpatrick are locked in a stalemate, far apart on a new contract.
