According to NFL Insider Ari Meirov of the 33rd Team, the New York Giants have two of the top 11 coaching candidates under 40 years old. Meirov identified young coaching candidates who have excelled and could be in line for a promotion after the 2023 season.
Unsurprisingly, Mike Kafka is one of the coaches on the list. Kafka was the second coach written about in the piece behind Lions’ offensive coordinator Ben Johnson. The Giants’ current offensive coordinator is only 36 years old; he was a fourth-round pick by Andy Reid in 2010 and spent six years as a professional quarterback before becoming a graduate assistant at Northwestern in 2016.
