Freddie Roach is staying at Ole Miss despite New York Giants rumors

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge still has a hole to fill at defensive line coach as Freddie Roach will be staying at Ole Miss.

Earlier in the week, reports surfaced that Roach would become the Giants’ next defensive line coach; but on Friday, Ole Miss announced via Twitter that he’s staying on their staff as assistant head coach, defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator.

Roach had previously worked with Judge at Alabama from 2009-2010, earning a national championship ring in 2009.

After time coaching at East Mississippi, Murray State and South Alabama, Roach returned to the tide in 2015, where he spent two seasons as Alabama’s director of player development.
