Brian Daboll's playoff run in 2022 earned him NFL Coach of the Year honors. However, the early success faded, culminating in a 20-40-1 record over four seasons. New York offensive coordinator Mike Kafka was promoted to interim coach for the season’s final seven games.

Kafka, who previously worked under Andy Reid with the Kansas City Chiefs, was once a candidate for the Saints' job before the position went to Kellen Moore. Kafka’s playing background as a quarterback includes stints alongside Michael Vick, Tom Brady and Josh McCown. Giants general manager Joe Schoen, who joined the franchise in 2022, will remain in his post.

Daboll’s final weeks were marked by Jaxson Dart’s repeated concussion evaluations. He also had a 5-22 record over his last two seasons.
