Boomer Esiason’s mouth was sacked by his CBS colleague Bill Cowher.
Esiason suggested the former Pittsburgh Steelers coach was interested in getting back in the game … as coach of the New York Jets.
Cowher shot that down in an interview with ESPN.
“I have no interest in coaching,” Cowher said in a phone interview with ESPN.
“I have too much respect for the coaching profession to talk about a job that isn’t open,” he said. “From that perspective, any job that is open, I have no interest in coaching.”
Cowher will be going into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, should the inductions take place next year. His induction was announced earlier in 2020.
He doesn’t want to join Tony La Russa as someone who is a Hall of Famer who returns to work in the sport that put him there.
