Fitzpatrick's 10 stops led New York and marked his second double-digit tackle effort of the campaign. After missing Weeks 2 and 3 due to a groin injury, Fitzpatrick has logged every Jets defensive snap in four straight games as a stalwart of the team's secondary. The veteran safety has tallied 36 tackles and two defensed passes, including one interception, through five games during his first season with New York.
