Brian Daboll Used a Pizza Joke to Shoot Down Reports About Tension With Wink Martindale

If tension is building between Giants head coach Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Don ‘Wink’ Martindale, those claims were shut down by Daboll after the team’s 10-7 win over the Patriots on Sunday afternoon.

Ahead of the contest, Fox Sports insider Jay Glazer reported there was some ‘tension’ brewing between the two and even speculated that their bond could be coming to an end. When Daboll was asked about the claims of tension between the two, the 48-year-old responded with a clever food joke.

“The biggest argument Wink and I have had is who has the last slice of pizza,” Daboll said. “I got a lot of respect for Wink, done a good job. I’ll leave it at that.”
