Giants anticipate Brian Daboll assuming play-calling responsibilities

Two summers ago, there were rumors about Brian Daboll, the Bills’ play-caller for four years, potentially taking on a CEO role in his first year as the Giants HC. This speculation turned out to be true, and Daboll had OC Mike Kafka handling the play sheet for most of the past two seasons.

However, rumors of a change have persisted this offseason. As we approach training camp, it seems likely that the Giants will have a new play-caller this season. Daboll has been calling plays at OTAs and minicamp, indicating a shift for Kafka to a non-play-calling OC in the upcoming regular season, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.

Given how last season unfolded, it makes sense for Daboll to want full control. The Giants have a history of not retaining coaches beyond a fourth season, and Daboll’s tenure was not without controversy, especially his clash with DC Don Martindale which led to his departure after two seasons.

Daboll has a strong track record in calling plays, notably during his time in Buffalo when Josh Allen developed into a superstar. Following a disappointing 6-11 season last year, Daboll mentioned the possibility of making changes. He has experience calling plays for other teams like the Chiefs, Browns, and Dolphins, but his work with the Bills stands out.

Kafka received praise for his coaching of Daniel Jones in 2022, especially with the limited offensive weapons at his disposal. His success led to interest from other teams for a HC position. Despite his accomplishments, the relationship between Daboll and Kafka will be closely monitored moving forward.
