Ben Wilkerson will coach Giants’ offensive line in week 17

Earlier in the week the New York Giants found out that offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo has tested positive for COVID-19. This is a huge blow to them after he took over leading their o-line after Marc Colombo was fired earlier in the season.

Two close contacts were identified that were around DeGuglielmo, one of them being assistant offensive line coach Ben Wilkerson, who is expected to coach in his place this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

The good news is that Wilkerson has been cleared and will be able to take over this week after there was some doubt that he would be able to.
