Giants block Mike Kafka from coordinator interview with Seahawks

UPDATE: The Giants have reportedly blocked Mike Kafka from interviewing for the Seattle Seahawks’ offensive coordinator position.

While the New York Giants continue scouring the globe for a defensive coordinator, they may also be facing another coaching staff defection. A report on Saturday indicated that “there’s interest” from the Seattle Seahawks in talking to Kafka about becoming Seattle’s offensive coordinator.

Kafka, who has interviewed for six head-coaching vacancies over the past two seasons, was a finalist for the Seattle job that went to Mike MacDonald. MacDonald has been a defensive coordinator, though, so his choice of offensive coordinator for the Seahawks will be critical.
