Giants hire Fewell as defensive coordinator
The New York Giants have hired former Buffalo Bills interim head coach Perry Fewell as their new head coach.
The Giants fired Bill Sheridan after just one year as the defensive coordinator, replacing Steve Spagnuolo.
Fewell was the defensive coordinator with the Bills until the team fired head coach Dick Jauron and pushed him into that role.
He was let go by the Bills at the end of the season, but did interview for the head coaching job. He gave up on that job, though, feeling he wasn’t a top candidate.
Fewell also has a relationship with head coach Tom Coughlin, and the defense has a lot of talented players to work with.
