IRVING, Texas — The Giants will begin interviewing candidates next week for their vacant general manager position, and team president and co-owner John Mara on Wednesday left open the possibility a new GM might be named before the end of the season.
Mara also said he believes Eli Manning still is a capable quarterback and that he wants him back next season at age 37. But he offered no guarantees Manning would return and that any decision would include input from the new general manager and new coach. He also said the Giants would seriously consider a quarterback in next year’s draft but did not commit to selecting one with a potential top-five pick.
