The new passing game coordinator for the Jets is Seth Ryan — and yes, that name should ring a bell. He's the son of former Jets head coach Rex Ryan (from the Seth Ryan, son of Rex, joined the Jets with his father's name but his own approach page).
Seth, 32, came over from Detroit, where he worked under OC Ben Johnson as the Lions' assistant wide receivers coach (2022–2024) and assistant tight ends coach (2025). He's deliberately chosen the offensive side of the ball to build his own identity separate from his family's famous defensive lineage. He'll work alongside OC Frank Reich to modernize a Jets passing game that ranked dead last in the NFL last season (140.3 ypg).
