It’s rare that one NFL team sends a gift to another, but a hard-fought Buffalo Bills win deserved a hearty meal. Sharing a story from his New York Jets head coaching days, Rex Ryan says he received a token of appreciation from Mike Tomlin and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I got a little story. We actually beat the Miami Dolphins when I was with the Jets to get [Pittsburgh] in the playoffs,” Ryan said Sunday morning on ESPN NFL Countdown. “Mike Tomlin sent a million of those things over there. I only had like, six.”
The only correction to Ryan’s story worth noting is that it didn’t appear to have occurred while he was with the New York Jets.
