2020 has been a tough year for everyone, but the New York Giants continue to take hits in the injury department and with coaches leaving mid-season. Several weeks ago, head coach Joe Judge fired offensive line coach Marc Colombo, instituting the coaching staff’s first departure.
Now, outside linebackers coach Brett Bielema, who has been looking for an alternative coaching job all season long in the college sphere, has decided to take a head coaching gig at Illinois.
At 50 years old, Bielema will receive a four-year contract with a starting salary of $4.2 million, indicating a massive pay raise, per ESPN.
