New York Giants tap Buffalo offensive coordinator Brian Daboll as head coach

The co-owners of the New York Giants wanted a head coach who new general manager Joe Schoen could work well with.

In hiring Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll on Friday, co-owners John Mara and Steve Tisch got someone who Schoen has worked with well the last four years in Buffalo.

“In the end, it was obvious Brian has spent his career preparing for this moment,” Tisch said. “He is creative, thoughtful, determined, and Joe and Brian are the perfect complement to each other. We will do everything we can to support their process as they build toward the 2022 season and well after that.”

Daboll, 46, replaces Joe Judge, who was fired two days after the Giants finished a 4-13 season, their fifth straight double-digit losing season.

Daboll was the first person Schoen interviewed being hired last Friday, and he quickly got a second interview Tuesday.

“We interviewed several people who are incredible coaches and all of whom are going to enjoy much more success in this league in their current positions and as a head coach,” said Schoen, who was the Bills assistant general manager during Daboll’s tenure.
