Bill Callahan, Offensive Line Coach

Bill Callahan took over as the Redskins interim head coach after Jay Gruden was let go this season. He also has a tremendous reputation around the league as an offensive line coach

Callahan has 16 years of experience as an offensive line coach in the pros, seven as an offensive coordinator, and two as a head coach (four in college). Callahan would be a home run hire for a Giants offensive line that has historically struggled since 2013.

The Giants also had one of the worst line coaches in football the past two seasons in Hal Hunter, so Callahan would be a major upgrade over him, as well.

He also got a solid season out of Giants draft bust Ereck Flowers, who played this past season at guard for the skins.

Callahan could possibly get some consideration for offensive coordinator, which is a role he served with the Oakland Raiders and Dallas Cowboys, but ultimately he would be better suited to coach the line.
