New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is going to have a new second in command working under him for the 2022 season.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Giants are set to hire Philadelphia Eagles director of player personnel, Brandon Brown, as their next assistant general manager.
Brown will replace Kevin Abrams, who was the long-time Giants assistant general manager for 20 years. Abrams is being retained by the Giants, but will likely take on another role in the organization in 2022.
Prior to taking the Giants assistant general manager job, Brown interviewed for the Minnesota Vikings general manager position, which eventually went to Kwesi Adofo-Mensah.
Brown has been in the NFL for the last seven years, five of which were with the Eagles. He was promoted to director of player personnel in 2021. Prior to that, he was the team’s director of pro scouting from 2019-2020, and before then he was the assistant director of pro scouting from 2017-2018.
Prior to that, Brown was with the Indianapolis Colts as a scouting assistant in 2015 and an advanced scout in 2016.
