MIKE KAFKA GETS SECOND INTERVIEW FOR SAINTS HC JOB. New York Giants assistant head coach/offensive coordinator Mike Kafka is getting a second interview with the New Orleans Saints for their head coaching vacancy,

The New York Giants are expected to block Mike Kafka from any offensive coordinator interviews should requests be made.

Remember, coming out of 2023, Daboll refused to let Kafka interview for Seattle’s play-calling offensive coordinator job under new defensive-minded head coach Mike Macdonald. Then Daboll, after forcing Kafka to return to East Rutherford, essentially stuffed him in a broom closet, fully stripping his play-calling duties.

The New Orleans Saints are bringing Giants offensive coordinator and assistant head coach Mike Kafka in for a second interview for the head coaching job on Tuesday.

New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka will get a second interview with the New Orleans Saints as former Dallas Cowboys boss Mike McCarthy is involved in rumors.

Malik Nabers has been everything the Giants hoped for and more. As the postseason honors rack up, another one could be on the horizon.

For some of those teams, that will involve finding new head coaches and/or General Managers. Three teams fired their head coaches during the season and two more have been dispatched as of 9 a.m. ET on January 6.

There have been changes at defensive coordinator, special teams coordinator, running backs coach (twice), tight ends coach, offensive line coach, outside linebackers coach and defensive backs coach.

With Glenn going to New York, Johnson heading to Chicago and Mike Vrabel already in New England, four head coaching vacancies remain. The Saints, Jaguars, Raiders and Cowboys are still in the hunt. Johnson, who was Detroit’s offensive coordinator, picked the Bears on Monday, two days after the No. 1 seeded Lions lost to Washington.

The Cowboys interviewed Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who played for the team and then served as Dak Prescott’s play-caller for four seasons. Dallas also interviewed former Jets coach Robert Saleh and former Vikings coach Leslie Frazier.

The New York Giants will hire former New York Jets safeties coach Marquand Manuel as their defensive backs coach.

The Raiders have hired Bucs assistant GM John Spytek to be their GM, but like the Cowboys, Saints, Jaguars and Jets, they don't have a new head coach yet.
