Interesting. Amos Jones will always be linked to Joe Judge, considering he gave him his first job, so maybe the Giants’ staff isn’t complete after all.

Maybe Jones is considering joining Judge in an advisory role. Would certainly be a trusted sounding board

So maybe Joe Judge's staff isn't complete?

Jones is the assistant ST coordinator with the Bucs. He was also the ST coordinator and LBs coach at Mississippi State when Judge was a grad assistant there.

very tight with Judge, like a second father according to reports.
Honest

question, if they are so close, what's the point of the interview? Wouldn't Judge know Jones coaching acumen, style etc?

Interviews go both ways, right?

No disrespect but what does this mean? If they are close then... their knowledge of each other "goes both ways". What's the need for a formal interview?

The interview might not be for Judge's benefit, but rather for the guy who's signing the paychecks.
An interview isn't just to understand a candidate  
Mike from Ohio : 2/13/2020 5:21 pm : link
and their qualifications. Judge and Jones may need to discuss specifically what Judge is looking for and what the role/responsibilities are. Just because they know each other doesn't mean it's just an up/down decision on whether they want to work together.
Probably just a formality

Could be bad optics, to hire without an interview,! when everyone his staff has.. Dispels any notion of favoritism. and the like.

Yes this is what I meant by an interview goes both ways.
