Good morning, New York Giants fans!

Jeremy Pruitt to join Giants’ coaching staff

Giants head coach Joe Judge is adding recently-fired Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt to the team’s coaching staff, per published reports.

Pruitt was fired for cause after three seasons at Tennessee after an internal investigation “showed evidence of multiple Level I and Level II NCAA recruiting rules violations under his watch.”

The Giants have not announced the hiring and Pruitt’s exact role role is unknown, though it will be on the defensive side of the ball.

Pruitt, 46, has never coached in the NFL.
