The Las Vegas Raiders continue to search for a new general manager after firing Tom Telesco following the 2024 season, and now they’ve reached out to the New York Giants.
Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports reports that the Raiders have requested an interview with Giants assistant general manager Brandon Brown.
The Raiders have requested permission to interview Giants Assistant GM Brandon Brown for their vacant GM position, sources tell @NFLonCBS. Brown received multiple interviews last cycle, and the interest continues this year.

For Brown, 36, this represents his first interview of the current GM cycle. Last year, he interviewed with the Los Angeles Chargers and Carolina Panthers but was ultimately passed over.
Current Giants general manager Joe Schoen signed Brown away from the Philadelphia Eagles in 2022 after he had spent five seasons with the team, serving in multiple roles, including director of pro scouting and director of player personnel.
Despite this being his first interview of 2025, Brown is considered a hot candidate around the league. He will eventually land a general manager job and if it happens this year, the Giants will be compensated with a third-round compensatory pick in each of the next two drafts under the Rooney Rule.
However, the Giants would ideally like to retain Brown, given that their power structure has already taken a hit with the loss of executive Ryan Cowden.
