Former New York Giants outside linebackers coach Drew Wilkins has apparently become a hot commodity at the college level.
Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports that Wilkins has been requested for “high-level college football interviews.”
Former #Giants outside linebackers coach Drew Wilkins, who had key role on Wink Martindale staff, especially third-down and blitz design, has been requested for high level college football interviews, per league sources. Martindale is a serious candidate for @UMichFootball job

Wilkins and his brother, Kevin, were fired by the Giants earlier this offseason in a move seemingly designed to push defensive coordinator Wink Martindale out.
The Wilkins brothers are long-time associates of Martindale and their termination yielded the results head coach Brian Daboll wanted. Just days later, Martindale and the Giants “parted ways” in an ugly divorce.
Before his time with the Giants, Wilkins spent 12 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens.
If Martindale eventually lands the defensive coordinator job at Michigan, it would come as little surprise if both Drew and Kevin Wilkins join him on staff.
