Rex Explains New Ink

On Monday, outspoken Jets coach Rex Ryan received a ton of media attention for the brand new tattoo he was sporting on his right leg however; he kept the public waiting on the true meaning of his new ink until the team released a video on Facebook yesterday.

"A new 'tat' means believe in yourself, which I've got no problem doing," Ryan said in the Facebook video.

Ryan further described how he got the tattoo: "I was on vacation in Hawaii (early last month). I've got a couple of tattoos before. I just felt like it. The guy that I went to had given me tattoos before and it's just something that I wanted to do."

"It's a mountain, some waves and some sharks," Ryan said of the ink that cover his calf from the ankle to the knee.

Ryan was asked how long it took for the tattoo to be completed: "After I got through crying? The tattoo is nothing, guys. It's fun. That's why I did it. It took probably an hour and a half."
