Dennard Wilson getting second defensive coordinator interview with Giants

The New York Giants continue their search to replace former defensive coordinator Wink Martindale, who parted ways with the team due to differences with head coach Brian Daboll.

On Saturday, they met with Kansas City Chiefs linebackers coach Brendan Daly and will soon conduct a second interview with Baltimore Ravens defensive backs coach Dennard Wilson.

The Giants interviewed Dennard for the first time in mid-January.

Wilson has been a coach in the NFL since 2012, spending time with the Los Angeles Rams, New York Jets, and Philadelphia Eagles before taking over as the Ravens’ defensive backs coach in 2023. He was the Eagles’ passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach the year prior, and also coached the secondary in Philadelphia in 2021.

The 41-year-old Wilson is from Maryland and was a defensive back for the Terrapins from 200-2003. He also spent part of the 2004 season as a member of the Washington Redskins’ practice squad but never played in the NFL due to injuries.
