Rex Ryan clearly wants to be an NFL head coach again. Throughout the Miami Dolphins' 2025 season, Ryan has taken some shots at head coach Mike McDaniel and, on other occasions, seemed to be sending Stephen Ross a message that he is ready to coach the Dolphins.
Fans were not thrilled at the prospect of Ryan coming anywhere near the Dolphins facility, let alone as the team's next head coach. As the season wore on, McDaniel continued to make a strong case to retain his job. That didn't stop Ryan from making some not very tasteful comments.
