Rex Ryan visits Daytona wearing Chargers shirt
Rex Ryan is living the unemployed life, and since he’s out of coaching right now, he can wear whatever shirt he wants.
Ryan and his brother Rob took in the Daytona 500 on Sunday, and Ryan’s choice of wardrobe – a Chargers golf shirt – raised some eyebrows.

It turns out there’s a perfectly reasonable explanation for this: Anthony Lynn, a longtime Ryan assistant, was recently named head coach of the franchise. In addition, Ryan’s son Seth recently took a coaching internship there.

Ryan is all about repping the family, as he once wore a Clemson helmet to a press conference for his son. This really isn’t a surprise when you think about it.
