The New York Giants have started their third search for a head coach since 2015, talking to Dallas defensive assistant coach Kris Richard.
As many things change, so many stay the same — especially in East Rutherford, where the New York Giants have fired head coach Pat Shurmur and are once again on the prowl for a replacement.

Here’s a look at 15 potential head coaching candidates.

Not only that, Rhule has a familiarity with the Giants and team ownership, having served as their assistant offensive line coach in 2012. He’s generated head coaching interest in recent years and very nearly landed the Jets job prior to the hiring of Adam Gase.
