Nick Wright joins Colin Cowherd to debate whether the New York Jets should bring back Rex Ryan as head coach. They analyze Ryan’s past success with the Jets, his defensive expertise, and whether he’s the right fit to turn the franchise around.

Rex Ryan got a seal of endorsement from his ESPN co-workers Mike Greenberg and Dan Orlovsky amid his Jets head coaching interview.

Mike Francesa has a plan to fix the Jets and it includes handing Rex Ryan “unusual authority” – just not in the way one would think.

Ryan, an ESPN NFL analyst, aims to reclaim the head coaching position he held with the Jets from 2009-14. During his first two seasons leading the team, the Jets advanced to the AFC Championship game. Across his five-year tenure, the Jets posted a 46-50 regular-season record.

Rex Ryan's opinion of himself as a candidate for the New York Jets isn't shared by people around the NFL, according to The Athletic's Zack

Ryan interviewing for the Jets' coaching job, which he had already held from 2009-2014, sparked a reaction from Coach Prime. The two have a minor history together, being a part of the Baltimore Ravens organization in the early 2000s, when Sanders was on the tail end of his career, and Ryan was a defensive line coach.

Ryan had been the head coach the last time the Jets made a postseason appearance and under his reign, the Jets made back-to-back AFC Championship Game appearances in 2009 and 2010. He was fired after the 2014 season when the team went 4-12.

Rex Ryan has returned to the New York Jets for an interview, and believes he's the best candidate for the job.

The New York Jets are once again in search of a head coach. So, why not bring back one of the greatest hits to the franchise?

New York hasn't made the playoffs in 14 years, the longest active drought in the NFL. When Ryan was the Jets' head coach from 2009 to 2014, he made the AFC Championship Game in his first two seasons but went 22-26 in his last three.
