Two former Giants quarterbacks are in the mix to speak with John Harbaugh about the vacant offensive coordinator position.
Davis Webb , a 2017 Giants third-round draft pick, and Alex Tanney , a backup with the Giants from 2018 through 2020, will receive interviews for the crucial spot on Harbaugh’s staff. A far more experienced candidate, Jim Bob Cooter — most recently the Colts offensive coordinator —is also on Harbaugh’s list.
Webb, 31, played in two regular-season games in his career — a mop-up appearance for the Bills in 2021 and his only NFL start for the Giants in the 2022 season finale. Denver offensive pass game coordinator and quarterbacks coach Davis Webb, a former Giants quarterback, is scheduled to interview for the open Big Blue offensive coordinator job.Tanney, 38, got into one game for the Titans in 2015 and one for the Giants in 2019. Both were viewed as coaches in waiting during their playing days.Webb is now part of the Sean Payton coaching tree as the Broncos passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Tanney was the Eagles quarterback coach in 2023 and the past two years was the Colts offensive passing game coordinator. Harbaugh’s first choice for offensive coordinator was Todd Monken, who directed the Ravens offense the past three years. Monken, though, was hired as the Browns head coach. ”I don’t want a one-system guy, who has his fit and you’ve got to build all the players to fit ‘my system,’ ’’ Harbaugh said this week on the Howard Eskin Show. “Because Jaxson Dart can live in different worlds. He can be under center, he can play-action, he can drop back in the gun, he can run the RPOs — I like all the different things he can do, so I want to have a coach that reflects that ability that he has.”
