Shortly after the New York Giants fell to 2-8 on the season after they suffered a 24-20 loss on the Chicago Bears (6-3) on Sunday afternoon, Giants defensive sort out Dexter Lawrence II insisted that he believed head coach Brian Daboll may assist the workforce flip issues round.
Giants co-owner John Mara clearly disagreed with Lawrence’s evaluation.
Giants present Brian Daboll the door after fourth straight loss
ESPN’s Adam Schefter (h/t Jordan Raanan) confirmed on Monday afternoon that Daboll is out because the Giants’ head coach. Schefter added that offensive coordinator Mike Kafka would be the membership’s interim head coach for the rest of the marketing campaign.
Each normal supervisor Joe Schoen and Daboll accepted their jobs with the Giants following the 2021 season. In his first marketing campaign as head coach, Daboll guided Massive Blue to a playoff berth and a highway postseason victory.
Nevertheless, Schoen and Daboll seemingly by no means recovered from handing quarterback Daniel Jones a four-year contract in March 2023. The Giants have gone 11-33 since that deal was inked, and the membership parted methods with Jones in November 2024.
Why would Giants hearth Brian Daboll now?
On Nov. 6, a report emerged claiming that the Giants have been prepared to fireside Daboll after the membership’s collapse on the Denver Broncos on Oct. 19 earlier than “cooler heads prevailed.” The Giants surrendered 33 fourth-quarter factors in what turned a 33-32 loss in Denver.
Schefter noted that the 2025 Giants have blown 4 double-digit leads in 4 highway losses since Week 2. Each Daboll and Kafka received criticism from followers on social media relating to their dealing with of rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart after Dart suffered a concussion throughout the workforce’s loss to Chicago. Dart has been evaluated for concussions on four occasions because the preseason.
Some understandably assumed the Giants would not need to separate Dart and Daboll till no less than the workforce’s bye in Week 14. Maybe Monday’s developments present the Giants count on Dart can be sidelined for the Nov. 16 house recreation in opposition to the Inexperienced Bay Packers, or possibly Mara and Co. merely determined they not needed Dart to develop beneath Daboll.
Both manner, the Giants will now get to see how Kafka handles serving as an interim head coach for longer than a couple of weeks.
