The New York Giants on Friday made the hirings of their three coordinators — Mike Kafka on offense, Wink Martindale on defense and Thomas McGaughey on special teams — official.
“What we were looking for was intelligence, good communicators, good teachers that understood and were experts in their respective areas, and good teammates,” new head coach Brian Daboll said. “I’ve known them, but I wouldn’t say a relationship. I’ve known them throughout the years just being in the league.”
Kafka, 34, spent the previous five seasons as an assistant coach on Andy Reid’s staff with the Kansas City Chiefs, the last two as the team’s quarterbacks coach and pass game coordinator.
