Romeo Crennel and the New York Giants have had at least one phone conversation about becoming the team’s next defensive coordinator.

The Kansas City Chiefs, who are also interested in the former Cleveland Browns coach, cannot be amused as his price tag will likely go up thanks to the increased competition.

“I know they’ve talked,” Crennel’s agent Joe Linta said per the Newark Star-Ledger. “And I’m sure they weren’t just calling him to say hi.”

But how serious were the talks? Not very so far.

“Let’s put it this way: Romeo and the Giants are only Facebook friends right now,” Linta said.
