The NFL began its Coaching Accelerator Program in 2022 to help assistant coaches with diverse backgrounds who aspire to become NFL head coaches someday get an in-depth chance to learn more about the role and to network. Among the participants was New York Giants offensive coordinator/assistant head coach Mike Kafka, who has drawn head coaching consideration in the last two hiring cycles.
After an impressive first season in 2022 as an NFL offensive coordinator, last season was rocky for the former NFL quarterback and the team in general. The Giants won just six games because they had to cycle through three quarterbacks because of injuries. But last year is in the rearview mirror, and Kafka, Daboll, and the rest of the coaching staff are on the same page moving forward. Kafka is now working closer with Daboll in his expanded role as assistant head coach.
"Right now, there's not a bunch of expectations," he said. "I'm just trying to learn from Dabs as much as I can, be around him, be a sponge, and do whatever tasks he wants to give me and whatever tasks we want to grow with. That's what I'll do." They also made headlines in the draft with the addition of wideout Malik Nabers, who was drafted No. 6 overall. Nabers gives the offense a much-needed explosive element.
