The New York Giants will interview former Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris for their head coaching vacancy.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday that Morris has scheduled formal head coach interviews next week with three teams: the Giants, Arizona Cardinals, and Tennessee Titans.
Morris, 49, was recently relieved of his duties in Atlanta after serving as the Falcons’ head coach. Before that role, he earned widespread respect as defensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams from 2021-2023, helping guide the team to a Super Bowl LVI championship in the 2021 season.
He also has prior head coaching experience, leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2009 to 2011 with a record of 17-31 over three seasons (including an interim stint).
Known for strong defensive schemes, player relationships, and leadership, Morris has long been viewed as a rising coaching talent. His candidacy comes as multiple teams conduct searches following the 2025 season.
For the Giants, the interview represents part of a broader effort to find new leadership and rebuild after recent struggles. With interest from several franchises, Morris could soon land his third head coaching opportunity.
