Offense? Defense? NFL Experience? Giants to Cast a Wide Net in Their Coaching Search

The Giants seek a new leader to improve a 7-27 record over two seasons and develop rookie QB Jaxson Dart among a deep pool of candidates, GM Joe Schoen said.

  • The New York Giants launched a head-coach search after the season ended, with GM Joe Schoen saying, `Having this runway has really helped`.
  • The search is urgent because the New York Giants must reverse a 7-27 stretch and help franchise quarterback Jaxson Dart develop after a mixed rookie season.
  • The Giants can interview candidates remotely as early as Wednesday, with Wild Card candidates scheduled for Jan. 13 or 14, and in-person sessions starting Jan. 19, Schoen said.
  • Owners John Mara and Steve Tisch will make the final hiring decision while GM Joe Schoen runs the search, and interim coach Mike Kafka will receive a courtesy interview after coaching the last seven games.
  • Amid broader coaching turnover, six head-coaching openings exist leaguewide, while the New York Giants have had seven coaches since Tom Coughlin and a.300 winning percentage.
