Giants Weigh Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman in Broad Head-Coach Search

Notre Dame’s long-term contract plus a pledge to match outside offers complicate any pursuit.

Overview

  • NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported Sunday that Marcus Freeman is viewed as the foremost college option under Giants consideration.
  • The Giants are planning a widespread search across NFL assistants and veteran candidates, with no single offensive play-caller dominating this cycle.
  • Freeman is under a multi‑year Notre Dame deal reported through 2030, and AD Pete Bevacqua has signaled the school would consider matching outside offers.
  • No formal interviews or hiring moves have been completed, with the process expected to pick up after the season as New York sits 2-12 under interim coach Mike Kafka.
  • Freeman’s defensive background is seen as a potential fit alongside New York’s young offensive core of Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo and Malik Nabers, per recent reporting.
