When Ben McAdoo was fired as the head coach of New York Giants late in the 2017 season, he became sort of an odd-man out in NFL circles. He was the guy who benched Eli Manning in favor of Geno Smith to disastrous results and also the coach whose tenure was marred by the infamous “boat trip” as the team prepared for the 2017 playoffs.
McAdoo has worked in the league since, however.
After a two-year absence, McAdoo resurfaced as the quarterbacks coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2020. Last season, he served as a consultant to Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, who McAdoo worked under in Green Bay before being hired as the Giants’ offensive coordinator in 2014.
