The Giants are signing Dennard Wilson to be their new defensive coordinator. Wilson spent the past two years running a Tennessee defense that hasn't been awesome but probably performed better than you think. The Titans ranked 21st in total yards allowed last season; second in 2024. The team also finished a decent 17th in defensive DVOA in Wilson's first season (down to 29th in 2025). This year's unit improved against the run over the second half, after DT Jeffery Simmons returned from a mid-season injury. Wilson's NFL run dates back to 2009, when he started as a pro scout with the Bears. He worked under Lovie Smith there ahead of turns with the Rams, Jets, Eagles, and Ravens. Walker spent 2023 as DBs coach under new Giants HC John Harbaugh before taking the Titans job.

The Giants have ruled Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux (shoulder) out for Sunday's game against the Packers. S Tyler Nubin (neck) is doubtful, and thus likely to miss the game as well. The team lists CB Paulson Adebo (knee) and LB Bobby Okereke (shoulder) as questionable, but it appears they're expected to play.

Giants DL Dexter Lawrence (illness) and S Tyler Nubin (groin) are active for today's game. There's some risk to each. Nubin remained limited in practice Thursday and Friday, while Lawrence missed the whole week of practice. Each also carries IDP upside in the matchup with the Saints, though.

Giants rookie S Tyler Nubin had surgery Monday to repair the ankle he injured in the Week 14 loss to the Saints. He landed on IR ahead of Sunday's loss to the Ravens but should be ready for the start of 2025.
