Former NFL coach and ESPN analyst Rex Ryan set the internet ablaze on Sunday after accidentally exposing his bizarre lock screen live on air.
During ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown, Ryan was showing off a photo of his wife Michelle on the front of his cell phone when fans spotted something unusual about the picture.
Instead of opting for a normal shot of Michelle smiling or posing for a camera, the ex-New York Jets and Buffalo Bills head coach appears to have a snap of his long-time partner sitting down and checking her phone.
Yet more bizarrely, the picture was taken from an angle which captures a close-up of the bottom of her feet.
Ryan, who has previously spoken openly about his foot fetish, was infamously caught filming and talking about Michelle’s feet in a 2010 video which went viral during his tenure as Jets coach.
And fans have brutally mocked the 62-year-old after his love for feet was exposed once again live on ESPN.

Fans brutally mocked the NFL coach and ESPN analyst over his ‘foot fetish’ wallpaper
One user asked on X: ‘What in the foot fetish is going on there?’
‘Rex Ryan is FREAKY,’ said another.
A third asked in disbelief: ‘Is this for real?’
‘yeah… this is interesting,’ wrote a fourth.
While one simply commented: ‘He’s got a thing…’
As recently as two months ago Ryan discussed his foot fetish during an appearance on The Pivot podcast.
‘I love my wife’s feet,’ he said. ‘I don’t know what it is, but if a chick’s got jacked up feet, I’m out. I don’t care how gorgeous. I’m out.
‘I don’t know what the hell it is. But it’s like some people are boob guys, leg guys, you know whatever. Of course I notice a pretty, gorgeous face, but don’t s*** yourself, I’m checking the feet out.’
