Mike Kafka stepped into the interim head coach role for the New York Giants and quickly made a starting quarterback decision in favor of Jameis Winston over Russell Wilson. Kafka addressed a large media contingent with candor and composure, signaling a more expansive approach than during his prior tenure under Brian Daboll. Kafka emphasized player-focused priorities and staff cohesion while making minor tweaks to the weekly schedule and processes. The Giants, 2-8, face the Green Bay Packers without rookie Jaxson Dart due to a concussion. Defensive coordinator Shane Bowen cautioned that schematic changes will not be drastic.
"We need to make sure as a group, as a staff, we come together, put together a great plan, and really just focus on what the most important thing is."
"I just told him to trust himself, just like he did when he was a player, and whatever he needs, he's got me for forever."
"My only focus is just the players."
