Rex Ryan has been around the block in the world of football, including a stop as head coach of the New York Jets, leading the franchise to appearances in the AFC Championship Game during the 2009 and 2010 seasons. Now, he’ll go around the world in what may be his greatest challenge yet.
Ryan, 59, will partner with golfing buddy and probation officer Tim Mann as they compete in season 34 of the CBS reality show “The Amazing Race.” They will be one of 12 teams competing in the new season, which may be the most brutal season ever, as there will be no non-elimination legs.
