Giants Hire Stafford's Brother-in-Law Amidst Trade Rumors and QB Uncertainty

Created: JANUARY 14, 2025

Amid swirling rumors surrounding Matthew Stafford's future with the Los Angeles Rams, the New York Giants have made a move that adds intrigue to the situation. They've brought on Chad Hall, Stafford's brother-in-law, as their assistant quarterback coach, reuniting him with General Manager Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll from their Buffalo Bills days. This move comes as speculation about a potential Stafford trade intensifies, fueled by cryptic social media posts and the Rams' recent trade of star wide receiver Cooper Kupp.

Hall previously served as the wide receivers coach for both the Bills and the Jacksonville Jaguars. Stafford's wife, Kelly Hall, recently added to the trade speculation with an Instagram post featuring a blurry photo of the couple and a caption hinting at an uncertain future. She later voiced her confusion over the Rams' decision to trade Kupp, especially considering the team's near-miss of the NFC Championship, and expressed openness to a potential move for Stafford. These developments have sparked discussions about Stafford's potential fit with the Giants, who are currently without a quarterback on their roster after releasing Daniel Jones and with their other quarterbacks entering free agency.

While the Giants hold the No. 3 pick in the upcoming NFL Draft and are reportedly interested in quarterbacks Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders, the addition of Hall to the coaching staff raises questions about the possibility of Stafford joining the team. Despite the Rams' struggles last season, Stafford put up respectable numbers, completing nearly 66% of his passes for 3,762 yards, 20 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He also led the Rams to a competitive performance against the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Divisional round.
