After missing out on both Ron Rivera and Mike McCarthy, many New York Giants fans sent a prayer up that the team would somehow find a way to lure Bill Belichick out of New England and back to East Rutherford.
That did not happen, but the Giants did, in fact, place a call to the legendary Belichick.
However, the call was not an attempt wrangle Belichick away from the Patriots, but rather, requesting input on special teams coordinator/wide receiver coach Joe Judge, whom the team is currently finalizing a deal with to become their next head coach.
And as he had done previously, Belichick spoke glowingly about Judge.
With the pending hire of Judge, it will put to bed any final hopes of Belichick returning to the Giants to ride out the remainder of his career. But it will give the Giants a little slice of Belichick through his protege for years to come.
