The New York Giants Monday made official several changes to Brian Daboll’s 2023 coaching staff. Some of these had been previously reported, but
Jeff Nixon is the team’s new running backs coach., replacing DeAndre Smith, who joined Shane Steichen on the Indianapolis Colts’ coaching staff. Nixon was the Miami Dolphins’ running backs coach in 2011 when Daboll was the team’s offensive coordinator.
Nixon, whose 25-year coaching career includes 13 in the NFL, spent the previous three seasons with the Carolina Panthers. In 2020, he was the team’s senior offensive assistant/running backs coach under coach Matt Rhule.
