Giants head coaching search: 15 potential candidates

The New York Giants have fired head coach Pat Shurmur, so here’s a look at 15 candidates who could replace him.

Robert Saleh

Interesting option here…

A year ago, everyone in San Francisco wanted Saleh fired. Now that the 49ers sport one of the most dominant defenses in the NFL, however, the defensive coordinator is not only the talk of the town, but an early favorite to land a head coaching job in 2020. Do the Giants want a defensive-minded guy? They should, but their last two head coaching choices were heavy offensive guys, and with a young quarterback, that would seem to be the route the organization wants to stick to.

Again, however, Saleh has no head coaching experience at the NFL level and I’m just not sure the Giants want to (or can afford to) gamble here.
