NFL head coaching odds: Lincoln Riley has best odds among NY Jets candidates; Kliff Kingsbury a possibility for multiple jobs

One oddsmaker has listed Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley as the favorite for the open New York Jets head coaching position.

Don't get too excited though, Jets fans. Oklahoma agreed to a contract extension with Riley earlier this week that included a hefty raise. But that hasn't stopped Bookmaker.eu from giving Riley +650 odds to become the Jets' next head coach. While those are the best odds of all candidates listed, they're still relatively long odds -- a bet of $100 would yield a return of $650 if Riley was ultimately chosen.

Riley isn't the only coach with local ties listed as part of the odds.
