Giants’ Brian Daboll on calling plays: ‘Yeah, I’m doing it’

brian daboll plays

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll confirmed Tuesday that he is taking over play-calling duties this season.

“Yeah, I’m doing it,” Daboll said.

Effectively, that was as far as Daboll was willing to go on the topic.

“I’m the head coach, so I’m responsible for everything, whether it’s the defense, the special teams, the offense,” he said.

Daboll, 49, declined to discuss why the change was made from offensive coordinator Mike Kafka, instead saying that his focus remains squarely on preparing for Sunday’s season opener against the visiting Minnesota Vikings.

Kafka handled the play-calling duties during Daboll’s first two seasons with the team.

The Giants were 9-7-1 in 2022 but slumped to 6-11 during a 2023 season derailed by starting quarterback Daniel Jones’ torn ACL. The New York offense finished 30th in the NFL in scoring with just 15.6 points per game.

Before taking over the Giants in 2022, Daboll called the plays as the Buffalo Bills’ offensive coordinator for four seasons from 2018-21.

Daboll also had been an offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs (2012), Miami Dolphins (2011) and Cleveland Browns (2009-10).
