The first big hire of the off-season personnel cycle has been made, as the New York Giants announced that they have hired Joe Schoen as their next general manager.
Schoen has an extensive background on the personnel side and over two decades of scouting and personnel experience in the NFL. He began in 2008 with the Miami Dolphins, spending five years as one of the team’s national scouts. He then became the Dolphins assistant director of college scouting in 2013, a role he served in for a brief time before his promotion to director of player personnel in 2014.
Schoen served the Dolphins in that capacity until he joined the Buffalo Bills in 2017 as their assistant general manager.
