Report: Ex-Giant Mike Shula likely to re-join Pat Shurmur in Denver

There seemed to be a substantial disconnect between former New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur and offensive coordinator Mike Shula during their two years in blue, but as the saying goes, perceptions can be deceiving.

Shurmur and Shula apparently had a better working relationship than was let on during press conferences because Shula is currently working out a deal to re-join Shurmur in Denver.

Mike Klis of 9News reports that the Broncos are Shula are finalizing a deal to make him the team’s next quarterbacks coach.

“Broncos working out contract details with Mike Shula to become their QB coach per source. Offset with Giants still needs to be worked out.” #9sports

Incoming Giants head coach Joe Judge did interview Shula for the team’s offensive coordinator role, but that ultimately went to Jason Garrett.

Prior to joining the Giants, Shula served as the Carolina Panthers’ offensive coordinator from 2013-2017. He was also the head coach at Alabama from 2003-2006.
