Ryan Dunleavy
Ryan Dunleavy is a reporter at the New York Post.
Background
Ryan joined The New York Post in 2019 as a general assignment sports reporter primarily focused on the Giants, Jets and all-things NFL. A five-time New Jersey Press Association award-winner, Ryan previously covered the Giants beat for two years; the Rutgers football, women’s basketball and wrestling beats for five years; and minor-league baseball for seven years at various media outlets around the greater New York area. So, he has plenty of experience with coaching searches. The job has helped take the Rutgers graduate to 37 of the 50 states, and when he is not traveling he is probably quoting lines from every episode of “Friends” or dissecting the plot twists in every original episode of “The Twilight Zone” and the current season of “The Bachelor.”
