New York Giants
Charlie Bullen did an excellent job with the New York Giants after taking over from Shane Bowen as the team’s interim defensive coordinator for the final five games of the season.
Teams around the NFL have noticed.
The NFC East rival Dallas Cowboys have now requested an interview with Bullen for their vacant defensive coordinator position.
NFL insider Mike Garafolo said that Bullen’s name has surfaced as a defensive coordinator candidate “a few times” and that “he’s firmly a DC candidate in 2026.”
The Giants, of course, are interviewing John Harbaugh on Wednesday for their vacant head coaching job. Whether...

The New York Giants had little to cheer about throughout 2025, but the edge positiohn provided a spark to the dank swamp that was the Giants’ season. Veteran pass rusher Brian Burns finished second in the NFL with 16.5 sacks, only behind the Browns’ Myles Garrett, who broke Michael Strahan’s single-season sack record with 23. Rookie, third-overall-pick, Abdul Carter finished the season strong, after showing resiliency and overcoming his own immaturity issues.
New York finished with 39 sacks in 2025, which ranked 17th in the NFL. They had 45 in 2024 (9th in NFL) and 34 in 2023 (*29th in...

Harbaugh, 180-113 (.614 winning percentage) with a Super Bowl title and 12 playoff appearances in 18 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, has been the object of the Giants’ desire since the Ravens fired him after missing the playoffs this season.
Wednesday’s visit with the Giants is Harbaugh’s first official in-person coaching interview. He has spoke with Atlanta Falcons President of Football Matt Ryan, and had lunch over the weekend with Chris Mara of the Giants.

The New York Giants have lost too much.
Since they won the 2011 Super Bowl, the Giants have the fourth-worst record in the NFL (83-145-1, .369). Since 2017, the Giants’ 44-104-1 (.299) are a half-game behind the New York Jets (44-105, .295) for the worst record in the league.
That losing is, of course, at the center of everything for the Giants. The bad product they have put on the field the vast majority of time since 2012, though, is causing them to lose other things.
The Giants have lost relevance. They are the league’s fourth-oldest franchise. They have four...

The New York Giants had a bad year — HOT TAKE! In August, it was obvious that the defensive line and the run defense, in general, could significantly hold the team back — that’s exactly what happened, among other things, of course. The Giants were bullied up front, and the run fits from the second level were a problem, while the back-side holes remained way too wide and unoccupied.
The end result of the issue was the firing of the head coach and defensive coordinator, and a sieve-like run defense that opposing offenses exploited. Dexter Lawerence did not seem like...

Rather than sit idly and wait for John Harbaugh to make a decision on whether or not he will be their next head coach, the New York Giants are continuing to add to an already-lengthy list of potential alternatives.
The latest name to join that list is highly-regarded Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter. Per Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the Giants have requested an interview with Minter. In fact, all eight teams with openings — the Giants, Baltimore Ravens, Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Falcons, Arizona Cardinals, Las Vegas Raiders, and Cleveland Browns — have requested interviews with...

The New York Giants are once again searching for a new head coach, their fifth full-time head coach since letting Tom Coughlin go in 2015.
Since that time, the Giants have been through full-time head coaches Ben McAdoo, Pat Shurmur, Joe Judge and now Brian Daboll. They have had interim head coaches Steve Spagnuolo for four games replacing McAdoo in 2017 and now Mike Kafka taking over for Daboll.
Can Kafka, getting his first opportunity to be a head coach after interviewing for several open jobs the past three offseasons, earn the job? Will the Giants look for an experienced...

Former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has re-emerged on the coaching carousel interview circuit.
NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported Tuesday morning that Daboll will interview on Friday for the Tennessee Titans vacant head-coaching job.
Schultz further reported that Daboll is considered a candidate for a number of offensive coordinator openings around the NFL, and that Tennessee might not be the only team that interviews him for its head coaching job.
The Giants fired Daboll midseason with the team at 2-8. In 3½ seasons as Giants head coach, Daboll went 20-40-1 (.336 winning percentage). He won Coach of the...

To use a basketball term, the New York Giants are putting the full-court press on John Harbaugh in their effort to convince him to become the team’s next head coach.
The latest twist is that Ian O’Connor of The Athletic reported Monday night that Chris Mara, the team’s senior player personnel executive and brother of president and CEO John Mara, went to Harbaugh’s house on Sunday for lunch and an informal meeting.
O’Connor also reported that general manager Joe Schoen has “been in near-constant contact with the coach’s camp.”
Harbaugh has not yet scheduled any full in-person interviews, though almost...
