Pierre-Paul sat out the end of the 2013 season to rest his severe shoulder injury.

Coughlin Believes He Can Coach Past 2014

Sep 13, 2014 6:09 PM

Tom Coughlin expects to remain as head coach of the New York Giants "well beyond" the 2014 NFL season.

"I certainly do, and I'm blessed with good health and good energy and a routine that I think puts me in the maximum opportunity to stay healthy," Coughlin said. "The other issue, of course, is Judy. (His wife.) If Judy's healthy, and so on and so forth, and we both feel good about continuing ... then no doubt will we feel that way."

Couglin, who is 66, has previously said that he could coach past the age of 70. Coughlin's status has been a year-to-year proposition.
