Quotes: DT Barry Cofield on Defensive Coordinator Perry Fewell returning to the Giants: “The best thing about Fewell returning is the opportunity to build on what we accomplished this year. There would have to have been a complete overhaul if he left, because this is his defense. No one could have just picked up where he left off. Guys will get more comfortable with him and the defense will become second nature. It was a learning process this season, and there is much room for improvement. If the Giants are able to keep the core guys together, the sky is the limit for Fewell’s defense.”
