Rubio has leaned into the humor himself, writing on X last week that he wouldn't be a candidate for the vacant head coach or general manager positions with the Miami Dolphins.

"While you never know what the future may bring right now my focus must remain on global events and also the precious archives of the United States of America," he wrote.
