Overview
- Interim coach Mike Kafka received a fan-graded “B” for his debut and continues a multi-game audition for the full-time role.
- Jay Gruden said his brother Jon is very interested in the opening, though the former coach’s ongoing litigation tied to his 2021 resignation could complicate any candidacy.
- Reported interview targets include Antonio Pierce, Steve Spagnuolo, and Lou Anarumo, with Marcus Freeman and Matt Campbell also mentioned despite conflicting signals on considering college coaches.
- Reporting from SNY indicates the Giants are focused on a CEO-type leader with command of all three phases and the locker room.
- GM Joe Schoen is running the process, but John Mara and Steve Tisch will make the final decision with input from Tim McDonnell and Chris Mara, and the job is viewed as attractive due to young cornerstones like Jaxson Dart and Malik Nabers.
