The New York Giants hired former Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Tim Kelly to be their tight ends coach on Tuesday.

Kelly, 37, was fired last month after his second season on former Titans head coach Mike Vrabel's staff. He was the passing-game coordinator for Tennessee in 2022.

He has 10 seasons of coaching experience in the NFL, including a stint as the offensive coordinator for the Houston Texans (2019-21). He joined the Texans in 2014 and coached their tight ends from 2017-18.

With New York, Kelly will look to improve a TE unit that managed only two touchdown catches — one each by Darren Waller and Lawrence Cager — during the 2023 season.
