Rex Ryan is a Patriots fan !!!

What is more unbelievable: Rex Ryan as a lawyer, or the Jets head coach as a Patriots fan?





Field to screen
After entertaining sports fans, these athletes went on to entertain as actors.

The brash-talking Ryan will play both in an untitled Adam Sandler movie filmed in Massachusetts this summer.

"He was great enough to be loose and funny about it," Sandler said on NFL.com. "He's really cool."

Ryan's dialogue in his feature film debut includes references to Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and head coach Bill Belichick.

"My character ... is kind of a dirt-bag guy and he's in trouble, and Rex is an inexpensive lawyer in town and he takes care of me," Sandler said on the "Rich Eisen Podcast," adding of Ryan's character, "He's also a mammoth Patriots fan."

Sandler, a lifelong Jets fan who is often at home games, said Ryan "nailed" his performance.

"I saw [Rex] in the hotel in the morning going to the set, and I saw [him] running lines with two nice girls that work for the Jets," Sandler said. "Just seeing the coach in the lobby, doing his lines, memorizing, closing his eyes, getting them right. He put on a suit, kind of a goofy suit, and he did great."
