This season, Brian Daboll acknowledged that he may call the offensive plays for the Giants.
For Daboll’s first two seasons, offensive coordinator Mike Kafka was primarily responsible for that role.
Daboll made his first public remarks since January 8, the day after the 2023 season ended, this morning during the NFL owners meeting. “It’s something I’m looking into,” he explained. “At this stage in the league, I believe there are twenty head coaches that call plays (either offensively or defensively). ..
