New York Giants Looking At Former Jets DC To Help Olivier Vernon

The New York Jets and the New York Giants are typically considered city rivals, but that doesn’t mean moves between the two can’t happen. According to NFL Network, the Giants have interviewed Kacy Rodgers, who served as the defensive coordinator for the New York Jets from 2015 to 2018.

The move is being immediately linked to Olivier Vernon, who Rodgers has experience with because of their shared time with the Miami Dolphins. With Vernon underperforming last season and struggling both on the field and with injuries, many Giants fans have wondered if it’s worth keeping him around at a large cost at all, so an addition to the staff meant to help Vernon could potentially offer large benefits.
