Talks between the New York Jets and Ryan Fitzpatrick on a new contract have stalled and it doesn't appear as though the two sides will negotiate anytime soon.

The current belief is that contract talks could drag into the preseason, which would mean the Jets would be forced to move forward with Geno Smith at quarterback.

Fitzpatrick completed 59.6 percent of his passes for 3,905 yards and a 31-15 touchdown-to-interception ratio last season.

Brandon Marshall, New York's No. 1 receiver, is starting to get worried about his quarterback.

"To be honest, me and Fitz talk every day, all the time, but I texted him the last two weeks three times and there's (been) no response," Marshall said on the I Am Rapoport podcast. "It's not like him. It's scaring me right now. It's scaring me that my guy hasn't texted me back."
