There has been a great deal of discussion this offseason about whether Shane Bowen is the right defensive coordinator to take full advantage of the personnel upgrades the New York Giants made on that side of the ball this offseason.
Pro Football and Sports Network has weighed in on how it ranks Bowen in relation to his peers, and it’s not great. PFSN has Bowen, entering his second season with the Giants, ranked No. 23 among defensive coordinators.
PFSN says:
The New York Giants were unremarkable in Shane Bowen’s first season as their defensive coordinator, finishing with a below-average defense in 2024.
