Everything Giants fans should know about interim HC Mike Kafka

After weeks of fan frustration and calls for accountability inside and outside the building, the New York Giants have officially fired head coach Brian Daboll. The move comes after another brutal 24-20 fourth-quarter collapse against the Chicago Bears — this one featuring rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart exiting with a concussion.

NFL insiders Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport report the team is elevating offensive coordinator Mike Kafka to interim head coach for the final seven games of the season. Alongside I’m still not sure how he’s here defensive coordinator Shane Bowen, the 38-year-old will try to turn this impromptu audition into something that sticks beyond January.
