Giants Expected to Oust DC Shane Bowen as Kafka Reviews Staff After 2-9 Slide

SNY reports the move is likely following Mike Kafka’s initial evaluation period after Brian Daboll’s dismissal.

Overview

  • The Giants blew another fourth-quarter lead in a loss to the Packers to fall to 2-9, and interim coach Mike Kafka said, “We’ll evaluate everything.”
  • Connor Hughes of SNY reports the odds are Bowen will be fired in short order after being retained for a week so Kafka could assess the defense firsthand.
  • New York’s defense has been among the league’s worst, allowing 27.3 points and roughly 383 yards per game, with a bottom-tier run defense.
  • GM Joe Schoen is preparing a targeted head-coach search that Jay Glazer reports will focus on established NFL candidates such as Mike McCarthy, Lou Anarumo and Steve Spagnuolo.
  • Bowen, hired from Mike Vrabel’s Titans staff, has faced mounting scrutiny as late-game collapses persist under Kafka’s interim watch.
