The New York Giants are set to bring in Matt Nagy as their new offensive coordinator, according to sources. Nagy, who was previously with the Kansas City Chiefs, will be tasked with developing young quarterback Jaxson Dart and the Giants' offense. This move comes after the Giants' preferred choice, Todd Monken, took the Cleveland Browns' head coaching job.

Nagy's recent contract expired with the Chiefs, who subsequently rehired Eric Bieniemy. During his time in Kansas City, the Chiefs' offense ranked 20th in the NFL this past season. Nagy also interviewed for several head coaching opportunities this offseason. The Giants finished 13th in total offense last season, with a strong running game led by Dart.

John Harbaugh, the Giants' new head coach, also has a history with Nagy's mentor, Andy Reid. Dart's performance was a key factor in landing Harbaugh in New York. Nagy will now work with Dart, Malik Nabers, and other young players. The Giants are hoping Nagy can help elevate their offense and make a playoff push this year.

This hiring provides Nagy with a fresh start after a previous head coaching stint with the Chicago Bears. The Giants' offense, with its young talent, presents a significant opportunity for Nagy to showcase his offensive expertise. The focus will be on Dart's development and fostering the team's promising young players.
