New York Giants assistant coach and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka served as the head coach of the National Team at this year’s Reese’s Senior Bowl.
Kafka, who has taken a backseat to head coach Brian Dabol with the Giants, showed a different side of his style as a head coach down in Mobile this week.

Kakfa is one of the most celebrated, yet underused, coordinators in the NFL. Last year, he had the offensive play-calling responsibilities stripped away by Daboll, which did not yield any better results.
Daboll still holds Kafka in high regard as does general manager Joe Schoen, who told reporters he was “hoping” that Kafka wasn’t hired away as their head coach this offseason.
“There’s a reason these teams continue to interview him for head coaching jobs,” Schoen said during his media session at the Reese’s Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama on Tuesday. “He’s got a great reputation not only in our building but around the league.”
Kafka is currently in the mix to become the head coach of the New Orleans Saints. They will make their decision after interviewing Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore after the Super Bowl.
It’s nothing new for Kafka, who over the past three winters has interviewed with the Seattle Seahawks, Carolina Panthers, Indianapolis Colts, Houston Texans, Arizona Cardinals, and Tennessee Titans for head coaching positions.
The Giants stand to benefit from Kafka’s experiences, especially with college players. The team feels it could give them a leg up in recruiting.
“Mike deserves the opportunity he has as one of the head coaches in this year’s Senior Bowl. His experience as a player and coach is invaluable to these young men who will soon be professional players. He is an exceptional coach and will serve as a resource for everyone involved throughout the week,” Daboll said in a statement.
In recent days, it has been reported that the Giants could be considering re-assigning the play-calling duties back to Kafka should he return.
