Since the NFL free agency period kicked off last week, veteran wide receiver Sidney Rice has been searching for his new home. While Rice continues to wait for a new deal, he appears to at least have a fan base that consists of the Ryan brothers.
According to reports, the New York Jets and New Orleans Saints are among the teams who have expressed interest in signing Rice to a deal.
Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network passed along the news.
#Jets are still looking to add a WR, and source says they are interested in Sidney Rice. #Saints are too, & #Seahawks would welcome a return

Both teams would benefit from adding a big bodied receiver on the outside, especially the Jets who lack any true receiving talent on their roster.
It will be interesting to see whether either of the teams can agree to a deal.
