and the smartest athlete is...

Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Ryan Fitzpatrick might have been a decent quarterback in the last few years, but his brain should be donated to the National Football Hall of Fame when he dies because a guy this smart joins the NFL once in a millennium.

The Tennessee Titan quarterback [this article was written before the 2013 season] achieved a near flawless SAT score and studied economics at Harvard before becoming a seventh round draft pick in 2005.

More impressively, he made headlines before the 2005 draft when he was recorded to have almost aced the Wonderlic test. He scored a 48, while taking the test in just nine minutes.

Fitzpatrick also had one of the best beards in the NFL before caving in and cutting it.

Jeremy Lin is pretty smart too.
