According to Tom Pelissero, the Giants have requested to interview Cowboys DC Dan Quinn for their head coach job.
The Giants are also in search of a new General Manager and have interviewed a long list of candidates. Quinn, meanwhile, is New York’s first head coach interview request since firing Joe Judge.
Quinn has already drawn heavy interest as a head coach from teams around the league and has been requested or completed interviews with the Vikings, Broncos, Dolphins, and Bears.
Quinn, 51, got his start in the NFL in 2001 with the 49ers as a defensive quality control coach before being promoted to defensive line coach. He spent time with the Dolphins, Jets, and Seahawks in the same position before being promoted to defensive coordinator in Seattle in 2013.
Quinn was hired by the Falcons as their head coach in 2015. He helped guide the team to a Super Bowl appearance in his second year in 2016.
The Cowboys hired Quinn as their defensive coordinator this past January.
As the Falcons head coach, Quinn led the team to a record of 43-42 (50.5 percent) over the course of six seasons, which includes two playoff appearances.
