ESPN'S Josina Anderson reported on Twitter on Thursday morning that former 49ers head coach Mike Singletary was interviewing for the New York Giants' linebackers coach job. Singletary and new Giants head coach Ben McAdoo worked together briefly in 2005 in San Francisco, where McAdoo was the offensive line coach and Singletary coached the linebackers.
A 10-time Pro Bowl linebacker and Super Bowl XX champion as a player with the Chicago Bears, Singletary's is the biggest name yet mentioned as a potential McAdoo assistant. And I'm sure fans will get excited at this news because they remember Singletary as an over-the-top screamer during his brief and unsuccessful stint as 49ers head coach from 2008-10.
