MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Jets can cross one name off their wish list.
Despite reported interest from multiple NFL teams, Oklahoma head coach Lincoln Riley said Thursday he will not turn pro anytime soon.
Riley, 35, has led the Sooners to the College Football Playoff in each of his two seasons in charge and is considered by many to be the best play-caller in college football, helping mold Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray into Heisman Trophy winners.
“I can’t tell you how I’m gonna feel in 10 years, but no, not right now,” said Riley, when asked about his interest in coaching in the NFL.
