Rex Ryan took over the reins in Buffalo in 2015 after a six-year stint leading the Jets. He led the Bills to an 8-8 record last season and a 7-8 mark through 15 games this fall.
The Bills beat incredible odds and missed the playoffs for the 17th straight season in 2016.
While Rex will likely resurface as a defensive coordinator somewhere, it is unclear where Rob will head next. His previous stints as a DC didn't go well, and he might have to return to being a position coach, depending on which organization hires him.
