The NY Giants are in the midst of a disappointing season, and most recently they fired head coach Jason Garrett. The Seahawks were so impressed with how well he transitioned Seattle’s defense to their system that they hope to lure him away from New York. There is concern about what the future holds for the Giants’ locker room amidst this decision.
The “Jason Garrett’s Firing Sends Concerning Shockwaves Throughout Giants Locker Room Amid Disappointing Season” is a recent article that talks about the firing of Jason Garrett, which has sent shockwaves throughout the Giants locker room amid this disappointing season.
The New York Giants have had a difficult time finding any kind of success this season. Before messing up lately, Daniel Jones seemed to have found his feet. With numerous ailments, Saquon Barkley has been in and out of the lineup. Kenny Golladay, the Giants’ high-profile free-agent signing, has been a huge letdown.
The list continues on and on, with offensive coordinator Jason Garrett’s dismissal coming following the Buccaneers’ defeat on Monday night.
Others in the locker room now seem to be coaching for a living, or at least that’s how it appears around the company.
The Giants parted ways with Jason Garrett and need to make further moves to right the ship.
Jason Garrett, the #Giants’ offensive coordinator, was recently removed of his responsibilities. He is the first head coach, coordinator, or position coach in the NFL to be dismissed this season. (In October, Jon Gruden resigned.)

Garrett’s choice to split ways with him was not unexpected. The Giants’ offense has struggled on several occasions, but not all of it is Garrett’s fault.
Despite this, he departs in the midst of a poor season for New York. The Giants offense ranks 25th in terms of points scored per game and running yards, 19th in terms of passing yards, and 28th in terms of time of possession.
Those aren’t really promising figures. Sure, there have been injuries all over the place, but Garrett hasn’t helped himself by scoring 20 points or less in four of his last six games. After the choice was made, Jones praised Garrett (h/t SNY Giants).
“On offense, he was a significant component of what we were doing.” We’ll miss him a lot; he did a lot for us.”
Jason Garrett was fired, according to Daniel Jones.
In another perplexing move, the Giants elevated Freddie Kitchens — yes, that Freddie Kitchens — to offensive coordinator.
The decision to fire Garrett had a cascading impact across the locker room.
“Everyone is to blame in this situation: Gettleman for selecting Daniel Jones, Joe Judge for selecting Jason Garrett, and Daniel Jones for selecting football. All of these individuals must be held accountable in this situation.”

Garrett’s dismissal came as no surprise. There are, however, considerably more problems than just the offensive coordinator. Jones hasn’t been the first-round selection the Giants expected, and Judge’s decision to employ Garrett in the first place has always been perplexing.
Now that the Giants are working to correct a number of problems throughout the organization, defensive coordinator Patrick Graham (h/t Ralph Vacchiano of SNY) has an unusual viewpoint.
“I come in every day thinking, ‘You may be fired.’”
DC Giants Patrick Graham discusses the current situation of the team.
You do not want to hear that. Furthermore, it does not seem like a pleasant locker room environment. Sure, the Giants’ offense hasn’t been great, and parting ways with Garrett may have been the best move.
But suddenly Graham is thinking like this, and who knows how many other coaches — or players, for that matter — are thinking the same way.
In New York, things aren’t looking good.
If things don’t change, Joe Judge could be joining Jason Garrett shortly.

Losing is something the Giants despise. On the other hand, who enjoys losing?
At best, Judge’s stint as Giants head coach has been precarious. If nothing changes, he may have to let go as well. Sure, this club has a lot of problems, but Judge hasn’t helped himself much either.
New York is currently in last place in the NFC East with a record of 3-7. They still have two games remaining against the Los Angeles Chargers, Dallas Cowboys, and Philadelphia Eagles, including this weekend.
Garrett is no longer with the team, and additional changes are expected in the summer.

Joe Judge and the New York Giants will not be saved if Jason Garrett is fired.
