Rex Ryan reportedly aware he will be fired at end of season

Rex Ryan

Rex Ryan is reportedly a dead man walking in Buffalo, and the head coach knows it.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Ryan is likely going to be fired after the final two games of the regular season. Schefter adds that Ryan is well aware of what the future holds, which has made things “awkward” around the organization.

While it appears there is no way Ryan can save his job, general manager Doug Whaley is expected to be given a chance to hire his third head coach after Ryan and former Bills coach Doug Marrone did not pan out. Whaley was named GM in 2013 and signed a contract extension at the start of the year.

The Bills were in decent shape in the AFC at 6-5 two weeks ago, but they put together back-to-back uninspiring performances against the Raiders and Steelers to fall to 6-7. The loss to Oakland was particularly ugly, as Buffalo led 24-9 in the third quarter and ended up losing 38-24. Against Pittsburgh, the Bills allowed Le’Veon Bell to rack up over 300 yards from scrimmage and score three touchdowns.

Ryan recently addressed the reports about his job being in jeopardy. You can read what he said here.

While two seasons in a new place does not seem like very long to prove yourself, it sounds like the Bills have seen enough from Rex.
