The Giants have added a notable name to their coaching staff.
According to Dan Duggan of The Athletic, recently fired University of Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt will be joining the staff in a role that’s yet to be revealed. Duggan reported the news Wednesday evening.
Pruitt was let go from Tennessee earlier this month after recruiting violation evidence was discovered.
