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

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.

Rex Ryan has returned to the New York Jets — for an interview, at least. The former Jets coach and current ESPN analyst, who led the franchise to its last playoff appearance to cap the 2010 season, met with the team Tuesday about its head coaching vacancy.
