New York Giants have appointed Marquand Manuel as their new defensive backs coach, who previously coached safeties for the New York Jets. His main focus will be improving Deonte Banks, the Giants' first-round pick from 2023, whose performance waned under the previous regime. Manuel's extensive NFL experience as a safety will also be crucial in developing Tyler Nubin, who struggled during his rookie season. The Giants' secondary saw significant turnover with the firing of Jerome Henderson and Mike Treier after a disappointing season. The team aims to bolster their cornerback depth while hoping Banks evolves into a reliable second option. With the loss of standout Xavier McKinney, the Giants are looking to revitalize their defense, which has struggled with takeaways compared to their cross-town rivals.
