Overview
- Reporters saw McDermott walk onto the New York Giants’ mandatory minicamp field and speak with general manager Joe Schoen, a visit recorded by multiple outlets on Monday, June 8.
- McDermott remains unsigned for the 2026 season and has reportedly turned down full-time offers as he considers taking a year off from coaching.
- Joe Schoen and McDermott worked together in Buffalo from 2017 to 2021, a connection cited by outlets as a likely reason for the visit.
- The Giants have not announced any formal role for McDermott and coverage describes the stop as an informal, possibly one-day visit rather than a hire.
- McDermott left the Buffalo Bills after the 2025 season with a 98-50 regular-season record and repeated playoff exits, and his presence at minicamp keeps him in view as a sought-after veteran coach.
