Rex Ryan got a lot of ink early in 2013 when a racy tattoo of his wife wearing a #6 Jets jersey was famously revealed while the head coach was vacationing in the Bahamas. 

Number 6, of course, was quarterback Mark Sanchez's number.

Ryan said he'd had the tattoo on his right arm for three years. "Obviously, if Sanchez doesn't play better that number is changing," Ryan joked at the time. 

Well, now that Sanchez is no longer a Jet, will the tattoo get the heave-ho as well?  

"Guys, the tattoo is still there," Ryan told reporters at the NFL annual meetings on Tuesday. "I'€™m not going to say anything about the Sanchez tattoo. It was my tattoo and it'€™s still my tattoo.

"I may alter it. Who knows? I'm going to put [No.] 75 on it to honor Winston Hill," Ryan continued. "That's the idea. That's what I'm going to do."

H/t For the Win.
