Giants Interview Steve Spagnuolo and Lions’ Defensive Coordinator

The Giants continued to work through their list of potential candidates for a new coach Thursday when they interviewed Steve Spagnuolo, last season’s defensive coordinator, and Teryl Austin, the defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions during the last two seasons.

On Friday, the Giants are expected to meet with Adam Gase, the current Chicago Bears offensive coordinator and former Denver Broncos offensive coordinator. The Giants have already interviewed Ben McAdoo, the team’s offensive coordinator the last two years. McAdoo and Gase are also candidates for the vacant head-coaching position with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Under Austin, the Lions ranked 18th last season, although they were second in the league in 2014.
