The Giants didn’t have to look very far to find their next special teams coordinator.

Michael Ghobrial, who spent the past three seasons with the Jets as an assistant special teams coordinator, will run his own unit without having to change his home address. 

Ghobrial was hired Thursday to replace Thomas McGaughey, who was let go after the season, the Giants announced.

Ghobrial was a college special teams coordinator for five seasons at Washington State (2020), Hawaii (2018-19) and Tarleton State (2016-17).
