The Niners are coach hunting again after they mutually agreed to part ways with head coach Jim Harbaugh. Harbaugh of course is now the new head coach at Michigan.
Ryan coached the Jets for six seasons, and brought his team to the AFC Championship game in each of his first two seasons. The Jets were 4-12 in 2014, and failed to make the playoffs for the fourth straight season.
