The New York Giants face the Denver Broncos on Sunday afternoon, aiming to secure their second consecutive victory after a thrilling Week 6 upset over the Philadelphia Eagles. However, the team will be without a key member of its coaching staff, as offensive line coach Carmen Bricillo did not travel with the squad.
The absence was confirmed Saturday afternoon: Bricillo and his wife are expecting the arrival of their third child, prompting him to stay behind for this important family milestone.
Now in his second season with the Giants after joining from the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of the 2024 campaign, Bricillo’s expertise has been instrumental in bolstering the offensive line.
Stepping in on the sideline will be assistant offensive line coach James Ferentz, who also arrived from the Raiders before last season and brings a wealth of experience to the role.
This Giants-Broncos matchup promises high stakes, with New York looking to build momentum in the NFC East standings.
