The Giants announced they have hired a replacement for Mike Waufle as defensive line coach.

Robert Nunn, was previously the d-line coach down in Tampa Bay and comes highly regarded according to sources.

HC Tom Coughlin: “Robert Nunn has been in professional football for 10 years and he has coached some outstanding players at every stop along the way. He is a guy who did an outstanding job on the board with the X’s and O’s in the interview process. More than that, he is a guy who, by virtue of how he presented himself, I feel very strongly will bring the best out of the players that he coaches. He will provide structure. He will gain their trust. He will prove to the players the techniques that are important. When that happens and they buy into it, I think the results will come back for us. He will coach a very important position on our team, one that we will rely on heavily to bring us back to the level of championship play.”

DC Perry Fewell: “We’re very excited to have Robert Nunn join our football staff. He comes highly recommended from some of the other coaches throughout the league. I look for him to bring to our defensive line fundamentals, technique, toughness, energy and to bring us together as a group to help make us a good defensive line unit.”

Nunn’s coaching resume also includes stops in Green Bay, Washington and Miami.
