Former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett is reportedly considered a fallback option for the New York Giants during their coaching search.

According to Paul Schwartz of the New York Post, Baylor head coach Matt Rhule is the clear favorite and No. 1 choice for the Giants, and Garrett will only be considered if things unexpectedly "go sour" with Rhule.

Garrett became available Sunday when the Cowboys announced they were moving on and subsequently hired former Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy.
