Greg Olsen is off to a fantastic start, and he is on pace to make history at the tight end position.

Week 6 has come and gone, and with it went Ryan Fitzpatrick's starting job. After a 174-yard, zero-touchdown, on-interception performance, the New York Jets pulled Fitzpatrick and have since announced that Geno Smith is the new starter.
