Syracuse targeting Giants’ Jeff Nixon as next offensive coordinator

Just when you thought the New York Giants coaching staff became toxic and unhireable out in the football world, comes the news that running backs coach Jeff Nixon is on the radar up in Syracuse.

Pete Thamel of ESPN reports that the Orange will look to hire Nixon as their new offensive coordinator this offseason (or possibly before).

Nixon is in his first year with Big Blue and has been coaching in the collegiate and pro ranks for the past 26 years, predominantly as a running back coach.

Nixon came to the Giants this past offseason after three seasons with the Carolina Panthers, in which he served as the interim offensive coordinator and assistant offensive head coach.
