Giants Quietly Fire Assistant Defensive Line Coach Bryan Cox as Shake-Up Continues

The unannounced move follows the coordinator’s ouster during a season defined by a league-worst run defense.

Overview

  • Bryan Cox was dismissed this week, with his team bio removed and no official explanation provided by the Giants.
  • He becomes the third assistant let go this season, following last week’s firing of defensive coordinator Shane Bowen by interim head coach Mike Kafka after an overtime collapse in Detroit.
  • Defensive line coach Andre Patterson remains on staff and is now the lone assistant overseeing the line group.
  • Interim defensive coordinator Charlie Bullen recently reintroduced tackling circuits in practice to address fundamentals and accountability.
  • Coverage highlights growing debate over whether staff changes are scapegoating deeper roster problems, with some fans directing frustration at general manager Joe Schoen.
