EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -Veteran coach Chris Palmer has retired after 38 seasons, including 20 in the NFL, with the last three coming as the New York Giants quarterbacks coach.
The Giants announced the retirement of the former Cleveland Browns head coach on Friday.
Palmer, who helped Eli Manning develop into a Super Bowl-winning and Pro Bowl quarterback in his first season with the Giants, twice worked as an assistant under Tom Coughlin, first as the Jacksonville Jaguars’ offensive coordinator in 1997-98 and with the Giants since 2007.
Palmer also coached for two teams in Houston – the Oilers and Texans – as well as the New England Patriots and Dallas Cowboys.
During his NFL career, he tutored Pro Bowl quarterbacks Drew Bledsoe, Mark Brunell, Tony Romo and Manning.
