MOBILE, Ala. — As Pat Shumur assembles his new Giants coaching staff, he has reached into the past of his star receiver. The new wide receivers coach is Tyke Tolbert, filling a job description he held with the Cardinals, Bills, Panthers and the past six years with the Broncos.
Tolbert, 50, is a former receiver at LSU, where he was a teammate of Odell Beckham Sr. — the father of the Giants’ Odell Beckham Jr.
“I played college ball with Odell’s dad at LSU, and I went to school with his mom, Heather, at LSU,” Tolbert told the Courier of Montgomery Country in Conroe, Texas, this week.
