Brian Daboll had no NFL ties to the first defensive coordinator he hired, and that relationship fizzled out after two seasons.
Perhaps the next assistant Daboll brings in to run the Giants' defense will be someone he's worked with before.
Bills linebackers coach Bobby Babic fits that description, and the Giants have requested an interview with him, the Post confirmed.
Babic, 40, was the safeties coach in Buffalo in 2018 when Daboll arrived as offensive coordinator and spent four years with Sean McDermott on his staff.
So there's certainly an affinity there, not only for Daboll, but general manager Joe Schon as well, given their shared experience with the Bills.
Babich took over the linebacker coaching duties in Buffalo from his father, Bob, who retired after the 2021 season.
Bobby Babich didn't make decisions on defense during his seven years in Buffalo.
In addition to Babic, the Giants will be running back Denard Wilson (Ravens defensive backs coach), Shane Bowen (former Titans defensive coordinator), Derrick Ansley (former Chargers defensive coordinator), Anthony Campanile (Dolphins linebackers coach), Jerome・Meeting with or expressing interest in Henderson. , Giants defensive backs coach.
