Ryan, 56, returns to coaching after a two-year hiatus, with his most recent stint being the assistant head coach for the Buffalo Bills. His more accomplished twin brother, Rex Ryan, was Buffalo's head coach at that time. Both of them openly support President Trump, so how bad can they be?
Despite never being a head coach like his brother, Ryan does have 20 years experience as an NFL assistant. He previously held defensive coordinator roles with the New Orleans Saints (2013-15), Dallas Cowboys (2011-12), Cleveland Browns (2009-10), and Oakland Raiders (2004-08).
Washington circled back to Ryan after interviewing him for their defensive coordinator spot two years ago. One could speculate that if Greg Manusky—the current defensive coordinator—continues to underwhelm, Ryan may very well be waiting in the wings.
The Redskins also retained Jim Tomsula, guaranteeing another season of him coaching the defensive line. Tomsula unequivocally transformed Washington's linemen into a fearful unit, making his retainment a no-brainer... even for the Redskins.
