Sunday’s Giants News: CB and Backup QB Search Continues…
So Brian Kelly signed with the Lions and Trent Green is expected to sign with the Rams today. So the Giants are still searching for another cornerback and a backup quarterback. You would think that the it would be easier for the Super Bowl champs to fill their needs than teams like the Lions and the Rams. Both of them are dome teams which I don’t like anyway. Green already played for the Rams so he might feel comfortable there, but they were 5-11 in 2007. Both of these teams must be opening their checkbooks for these guys because it makes no sense for a player to choose the Lions or the Rams over the Giants…
New York Daily News:
Tom Coughlin ecstatic about new deal - Ralph Vacchiano got some quotes from Tom Coughlin regarding his new contract.
I was thrilled to become the head coach of the New York Giants in 2004. It would be difficult for me to capture the emotions for the opportunity I was given back in 1988 to be an assistant coach with the Giants. And then to have the opportunity to be the head coach was the fulfillment of a dream of a lifetime.
And now to be able to continue in that capacity - with this organization, with this leadership, with this football team and with my coaching staff in place - is something my family and I are extremely excited about.
At the end of the article, Vacchiano reported that Brian Kelly agreed to terms with the Detroit Lions yesterday. Trent Green may sign with the St. Louis Rams today. The Giants were interested in both Kelly and Green, so they can be scratched off the list of available free agents as well.
