Packers Beat Giants To The Punch, Hire Dom Capers

The Giants wavered at beating the salary offer the Packers made to Dom Capers for their defensive coordinator position, and Capers decided he didn’t want to wait any longer. He signed with the Packers today in a move that will no doubt leave many Giants fans frustrated. Capers worked as a secondary coach for the Patriots this season after serving as the defensive coordinator for the Dolphins in 2007. The Packers will get a discount on Capers salary for 2009 thanks to some payment issues with the Dolphins from 2 years ago, but they will pay over $2 million for his services in 2010.
