Giants Promote Tim Kelly to Offensive Coordinator as Kafka Remains Play-Caller

The former Texans and Titans play-caller takes on full game-planning duties, continuing to lead the tight ends from the sideline.

Overview

  • Interim head coach Mike Kafka made the in-week move after Brian Daboll’s firing and will still call plays.
  • Kelly said he will shift from a run-game emphasis to helping design the passing attack and tie the plan together.
  • He expects to operate on the sideline on game day and balance the coordinator job with coaching tight ends.
  • The Giants named veteran Jameis Winston the starter for Sunday’s home game against Green Bay.
  • Kelly highlighted the need to limit Micah Parsons’ disruption through smart protection and targeted adjustments.
