Rams change mind, won't hire Rob Ryan as DC
Rams Defense - TM - St. Louis Rams
Jan. 29, 2013 - 1:15 PM ET

The Rams have decided not to hire Rob Ryan as their defensive coordinator.

Last week, the normally reliable Adam Schefter reported that the Rams had hired Ryan. Not so fast. "It wasn't a scheme fit," coach Jeff Fisher said. Ryan has historically run a 3-4 defense while Fisher prefers the 4-3. Now Ryan, who previously claimed he'd have a job within "five minutes," goes back to the pile. Perhaps he'll get an interview with Chip Kelly and the Eagles, who are in the market for an aggressive 3-4 proponent to coordinate their defense.
