The Jets have got a fiery innovator in Rex Ryan. The Jets reached an agreement with Rex Ryan, the former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator.
Ryan will be introduced at the team’s Florham Park, N.J., headquarters on Wednesday at 10 a.m. Ryan signed a four-year contract worth about $12 million.
Acording to a Jets employee who spoke on condition of anonymity said that Woody Johnson, the Jets’ owner, and General Manager Mike Tannenbaum flew to Baltimore on Monday morning to make the expected move official.
The Jets employee said the deal was in place shortly after the Ravens lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the American Football Conference championship game Sunday night. It came three weeks after the Jets fired Eric Mangini after three seasons.
The Ryan boys are the sons of Buddy Ryan, the longtime coach who invented the 46 defense used by the Bears in the 1980s.
