What does Jets coach Rex Ryan do in the off season? Shoots guest stints on CSI:NY, apparently. Ryan, whose previous film work ranges from Hard Knocks to pretty feet, and Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum just shot a walk-on for the show in which they play themselves in a scene with actors Gary Sinise and Eddie Cahill. And from the looks of it they're having a grand old time (maybe they were just happy to be in warmer weather?).
This does bring up a few questions for us though! Will Ryan be shot up in the end à la Bieber? Will someone reference getting "a goddamn snack?" And what random blog post will the writers of CSI:NY be lifting from this time? We guess we'll find out when someone tells us what happened after the episode airs this spring—we prefer our New York crime dramas shot in New York.
