The Giants have officially named Ben McAdoo head coach.
McAdoo was the team’s offensive coordinator for the past two seasons. He replaces Tom Coughlin, who stepped down as coach after 12 seasons.
“I am honored to serve as the 17th head coach in the history of the New York Giants franchise,” McAdoo said in a statement released by the team. “I am thankful to the Mara family, the Tisch family and Jerry Reese for this opportunity. I am appreciative of the support of my family, my wife Toni and our two children [Larkin and BJ] and my parents, brother and sister and in-laws back in Homer City, Pa.
