Offensive Line Coach
"The only assistant retained by new head coach Lou Holtz, Fry rejected several offers; he stayed to help the Jets return to prominence. He has a record of 23 consecutive seasons in the NFL either as a player, administrator or coach.
Before coming to the Jets, he coached the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line under head coach Chuck Noll. The Steelers running attack in 1972 under Fry established a club record for yardage.
He played for the Rams from 1953 through 1959 with two years out for a military hitch. He was an original member of the Dallas Cowboys from 1960 through 1964.
Bob began his coaching career with Atlanta as a scout in 1965 and was assistant player personnel director and offensive line coach for the Falcons in 1967-68. He joined the Steelers in 1969.
Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Bob was a star tackle under Bear Bryant at Kentucky in the early 1950s."
