According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Hue Jackson, who accepted an assistant coaching position with the Cincinnati Bengals in which he will be working with the secondary and special teams, was scheduled to visit with the Giants to interview for the team's quarterback coach position.

Former Raiders HC Hue Jackson had been scheduled to speak to Giants this week about QB coach job. Jackson accepted asst coach job in Cincy. 20 minutes ago via WhoSay · Reply · Retweet · Favorite · powered by @socialditto

The fact that Jackson accepted the job in Cincinnati before heading to New York to work with the team that just won the Super Bowl and Eli Manning, the game's MVP, probably has a lot to do with his relationship with Marvin Lewis and the team. I for one, am happy to have him back in the Queen City.
