EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Pat Shurmur is the favorite to become the next head coach of the New York Giants, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. But for now, Shurmur is doing his best to focus on what appear to be his final days as the Minnesota Vikings' offensive coordinator.
Speaking Thursday for the first time since the Giants scheduled a second interview, solidifying him as their likely choice, Shurmur said: "We as coaches find ways to compartmentalize things."
Shurmur added: "We just move from one thing to another. We don't let things that are happening around us to distract us.
