New York Giants quarterbacks coach Danny Langsdorf will be Nebraska's new offensive coordinator, Mike Garafolo of Fox Sports reports.

Langsdorf is the latest addition to coach Mike Riley's staff after he replaced Bo Pelini. Langsdorf previously coached for Riley at Oregon State from 2005-2013.

According to Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News, the rest of offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo's staff is expected to return next season. In his first season under Langsdorf and McAdoo, quarterback Eli Manning completed 63.1 percent of his passes for 4,410 yards, 30 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.

The Giants finished No. 7 in passing yards and No. 9 in passing touchdowns this season, but missed the playoffs with a 6-10 record.

Head coach Tom Coughlin and general manager Jerry Reese were informed earlier this week that they will return next season.
