Rex Ryan Will Probably Name Shady a Captain Against the Eagles

Rex Ryan loves trolling. Not only did he sign IK Enemkpali after the Jets dumped him for breaking Geno Smith’s jaw, he named him captain in their game against their mutual former employer. [Chip Kelly hasn’t been above that either, naming Caleb Sturgis a captain against his former Dolphins.] But with the Eagles and Bills set to face off, it’s pretty obvious what Rex is going to do.
When he was asked today if he’d be naming LeSean McCoy as a captain at the Linc next week, he laughed and incredulously asked why he would do such a thing. That pretty much seals it. Chip could retaliate, of course, by naming Kiko Alonso and Shady’s replacement, DeMarco Murray, captains. That might not be the best look though, since they’ve both been total garbage.
When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
