Former Buffalo BIlls quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has offered to donate to a charity of Spencer Brown's choice after the NFL fined him for a Week 10 play.
Though his official alma mater is listed as Northern Iowa, Buffalo Bills right tackle Spencer Brown may be a graduate of the Terrell Owens School of “That’s My Quarterback,” as he went to bat his signal-caller in the second quarter of his team’s Week 10 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
Buffalo passer Josh Allen scored on a designed run at roughly the halfway point of the contest, taking the ball 13 yards to the house to give the Bills a 17-13 lead. Indianapolis safety Nick Cross made contact with Allen before he crossed the goalline and finished his tackle once the quarterback reached paydirt, pushing the former All-Pro down out of bounds. Brown took offense to this, going over to have a… conversation with the defensive back at the conclusion of the play.
to right what he perceived as a Buffalo-centric wrong, as he tweeted that he would pay Bills linebacker Joe Andreessen’s $4,421.29 fine after the rookie made a special teams tackle in a Week 8 win over the Seattle Seahawks; the undrafted defender’s fine was ultimately rescinded. Fitzpatrick’s Wednesday gesture, though grand, is perhaps unsurprising given his relationship with Bills fans and Buffalo, as a whole. He suited up for nine different clubs throughout his 17-year career, but he’s long said that the Bills were his favorite, noting a special connection with the fanbase and general region. An Arizona native who famously attended Harvard University, Fitzpatrick wasn’t predisposed to liking Buffalo—he justit, and the fans understood him.
