Report: Giants to interview Bills’ Brian Daboll, Leslie Frazier on Saturday
After announcing the hiring of Joe Schoen as the new general manager, the New York Giants are expected to interview Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier on Saturday, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
With Schoen now leading the search for a new head coach, it was expected that he would be bringing in his former colleagues for head coach interviews.
As of Friday evening, the Giants are expected to interview both candidates before their AFC divisional-round matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. What makes it a bit easier is the fact that Schoen can conduct the interviews in Buffalo.
The #Giants are expected to interview two of their HC candidates — #Bills OC Brian Daboll and DC Leslie Frazier — this weekend in Buffalo, source said. Their new GM Joe Schoen is still in town, so this all makes sense. Both should happen tomorrow.

Daboll is expected to be one of the favorites to take over for Joe Judge, who was fired following the regular season. His offenses have been one of the best in the NFL over the last two seasons, ranking first and second in points per game during that span, respectively.
Frazier has proven to be a strong candidate in his own right after leading the Bills defense for the last five seasons. He has also served as the assistant head coach to Sean McDermott.
The Giants are also expected to interview Dan Quinn and Brian Flores for the head coach vacancy, but the Bills duo will kick off the interviews on Saturday.
