Giants Set Up HC Interviews With Mike McCarthy, Kevin Stefanski
Former Packers and Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy may land with a third NFC team. The Giants will interview McCarthy for their head coaching position next week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Their meeting will take place Tuesday, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
After the Ravens fired John Harbaugh on Tuesday, he reportedly vaulted to the top of New York’s wish list. The Giants will need a fallback plan if they’re unable to lure Harbaugh, though, and the 62-year-old McCarthy represents another experienced option with plenty of past success.
Like Harbaugh, McCarthy is a former Super Bowl winner. He helped the Packers to their most recent championship in 2010, his fifth season as their coach. Entering the playoffs as a 10-win wild-card team, the Aaron Rodgers-led Packers ripped off four straight victories en route to a title.
McCarthy lasted seven more years as Green Bay’s head coach after its Super Bowl XLV win over the Steelers. The Packers made the playoffs in five of those seasons, but a 4-7-1 start in 2018 led to McCarthy’s ouster.
After a year off, McCarthy took over for Jason Garrett as the Cowboys’ head coach in 2020. Dallas struggled to a 6-10 mark in McCarthy’s first year, but the team put together three straight 12-win seasons after that. The Cowboys won just one playoff game out of four during that stretch, though, before taking a significant step back in 2024. Quarterback Dak Prescott missed nine games with a severe hamstring injury, which helped lead to a 7-10 finish. Owner Jerry Jones allowed McCarthy’s contract to expire and went on to replace him with Brian Schottenheimer.
With his time in Dallas up, McCarthy interviewed for HC vacancies in Chicago and New Orleans last winter. Neither they nor anyone else hired McCarthy, who didn’t work in 2025. The offensive-minded McCarthy could resurface with the Giants, who would assign him the task of helping develop young quarterback Jaxson Dart. McCarthy would also attempt to build on an impressive 174-112-2 record as a head coach.
As the Giants wait to talk with McCarthy, they’ve already begun discussions with ex-Browns HC Kevin Stefanski. It was reported Monday that he would interview with the Giants. The two sides had dinner on Tuesday night, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Stefanski’s interview will occur on Wednesday, per Schefter.
Giants Hold John Harbaugh As Frontrunner For HC Job?
Prior to the news of John Harbaugh‘s Ravens exit, the Giants had been viewed as a team monitoring that situation closely. Now that Harbaugh is available, New York looks to have considerable interest.
The Giants are believed to have Harbaugh as their top choice, with ESPN’s Adam Schefter calling him a favorite to land the gig. The team had prepared for the possibility Harbaugh would become available, per ESPN.com’s Jordan Raanan. After Big Blue has struck out on coaches post-Tom Coughlin, Harbaugh appears a clear target.
Harbaugh, 63, is believed to have a high regard for the Giants’ job and Jaxson Dart, The Athletic’s Ian O’Connor tweets. After Week 18 began with a thin-looking talent pool for HC-needy teams, Harbaugh and Kevin Stefanski have become available. Stefanski is already set to interview with the Giants this week.
Six non-Baltimore HC openings currently exist, but teams who have a head coach employed are believed to be in on Harbaugh too. Within an hour of Harbaugh’s ouster, Schefter reports at least seven teams have reached out to the newly available coach. Other teams without HC openings are likely to follow, Schefter adds. Considering Harbaugh’s experience and credentials, and this year’s crop lacking the level of candidates the Ben Johnson-Mike Vrabel 2025 pool included, it is unsurprising he is generating this much interest early.
Harbaugh has only worked for two NFL teams despite coaching in the league since 1998. Ray Rhodes hired him to be on the Eagles’ staff that year, and Andy Reid kept him on as special teams coordinator for an additional eight years. Hired by the Ravens in 2008, Harbaugh became the rare ST coach to rise to the HC level. He enjoyed immediate success and guided Baltimore to 12 playoff berths and Super Bowl XLVII, where he edged brother Jim in a Ravens-49ers shootout.
With so much interest in Harbaugh, the Giants could be in a competition. The team’s decision to retain GM Joe Schoen after a mostly woeful first four seasons becomes more interesting when it comes to attracting a top candidate. The Giants have gone 7-27 over the past two seasons,. The jury is still out on Dart, but the team will not enter this draft with a quarterback need. Big Blue’s QB situation compares favorably to a few of the HC-needy teams’ depth charts at the game’s marquee spot, though the roster needs plenty of repair.
Harbaugh’s age does introduce a complication for interested teams. Clubs considering a rebuild would not appear to be fits for Harbaugh. No coach has ever been hired past the age of 66 (Bruce Arians). Harbaugh should still land a gig immediately, and ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler indicates he is expected to want one. But the age component is not one to entirely dismiss. That said, a few interviews will probably be set up soon. The Giants figure to be among those clearing part of their schedule to talk with the seasoned coaching vet.
Klint Kubiak Receives HC Interview Requests From Giants, Cardinals, Raiders
To little surprise, Klint Kubiak is a popular early candidate for head coaching opportunities. The Seahawks OC has received plenty of interest from teams with a HC vacancy.
Kubiak was already known to have received an interview request from the Falcons. He is also expected to be a target for the Titans regarding their opening. In addition, Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated reports the Giants, Cardinals and Raiders have submitted an interview slip. This marks the first offseason in which Kubiak has received an HC interview request. Giants rumors had emerged before the regular season’s conclusion.
Seattle clinched the NFC’s No. 1 seed and with it a bye during the wild-card round. As a result, NFL rules permit Kubiak to interview virtually with interested teams this week. All interviews he conducts must take place before the opening round of the playoffs wraps up. Per Breer, Kubiak is currently in the midst of planning his schedule with his focus still mainly on the Seahawks.
Kubiak has worked as an offensive coordinator with three different teams (Vikings in 2021, Saints in 2024 and Seahawks this season). The 38-year-old has not lasted beyond one season in any of those roles, though the Seahawks certainly would be interested in retaining him for the 2026 season. The Vikings fired Mike Zimmer after the 2021 campaign, and the Saints dismissed Dennis Allen midway through the ’24 season. That led to new offensive play-callers arriving and Kubiak heading elsewhere.
The second-generation play-caller coached the Broncos’ quarterbacks during an eventful 2022 season in Denver; Nathaniel Hackett went around OC Justin Outten to give Kubiak play-calling duties as the season spiraled. Hackett then worked as the pass-game coordinator under Kyle Shanahan in 2023, helping Brock Purdy to a Pro Bowl season as the 49ers soared to Super Bowl LVIII. The Seahawks reunited Kubiak with Sam Darnold this past offseason, with the assistant’s presence a draw for the QB, and the Seahawks have booked the NFC’s No. 1 seed for the first time in 11 years.
Seattle ranks third in scoring offense and eighth in yardage, and Darnold has delivered on his free agent contract. The Seahawks have seen some second-half inconsistency from their starter, but he has done enough to keep the offense afloat en route to a 14-3 record. Jaxon Smith-Njigba also smashed a Seahawks single-season record by tallying an NFL-leading 1,793 yards. With this coaching crop heavier on the defensive side, Kubiak was bound to receive requests. The Seahawks, who fired Ryan Grubb after one season, could face the prospect of replacing their OC for a third straight year.

Giants, Falcons Among Teams Monitoring Ravens HC John Harbaugh’s Status
Changes of some kind are expected on the Ravens’ coaching staff. It remains unclear if that will include the departure of John Harbaugh, but his situation is drawing considerable attention. 
A parting of ways between Harbaugh and the Ravens has been floated late in the season, one in which the team finished 8-9 and fell short of the playoffs. Leading up to Week 18’s winner-take-all game against the Steelers, it appeared as though a firing would be considered a surprise. Still, uncertainty looms over the situation with the list of coaching vacancies taking shape.
Harbaugh has been at the helm of the Ravens for 18 seasons; only Mike Tomlin‘s Steelers tenure is longer. Baltimore authorized a three-year extension last March, and owner Steve Bisciotti is well known to hold Harbaugh in very high regard. Those factors point to stability at the HC position for 2026. Nevertheless, Outkick’s Armando Salguero reports there are teams “monitoring” the possibility of Harbaugh departing. Included among them are the Giants and Falcons.
This comes after Josina Anderson of The Exhibit described Harbaugh as being “well-coveted” by teams around the league. That no doubt includes at least some of those with a vacancy at the moment (such as New York and Atlanta). Six openings are in place currently, although the possibility exists for that number to increase depending on how things play out in yet-to-be-finalized cases such as Harbaugh’s.
Per Anderson, movement amongst the coaching staff will be coming “relatively soon.” That could include a parting of ways with one or both of offensive coordinator Todd Monken and defensive coordinator Zach Orr. Monken has been on the head coaching radar in previous years, and earlier today he received an interview request from the Browns.
Details on the matter of assistant coaches will be worth watching for closely in Baltimore’s case. Until a firm commitment becomes public from the team, meanwhile, Harbaugh’s status will remain at least somewhat unclear. A final decision will have implications for Baltimore but it could also make a notable impact on this year’s hiring cycle.
Giants Request HC Interview With Lou Anarumo
Since Brian Daboll‘s firing, many have pointed to Lou Anarumo as potential replacement. The latter will indeed receive a look from the Giants. 
Anarumo has received a head coaching interview request from New York, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. The Giants have thus joined the Titans in attempting to line up a meeting with Anarumo. His Tennessee interview will take place tomorrow.
Not long after Daboll was dismissed, Anarumo was named as a candidate for the Giants. The Staten Island native has previously worked with the team. Anarumo served as the Giants’ defensive backs coach in 2018. His one-year stint in that role was followed by his Bengals hire as defensive coordinator.
Anarumo led Cincinnati’s defense for six years until being fired following the 2024 campaign. In short order, the 59-year-old landed another DC gig by joining the Colts. Indianapolis finished just 23rd in total defense and 21st in points allowed this season, but the team was hit hard by injuries throughout the campaign. Anarumo’s stock has not suffered, as evidenced by the fact he is already a target of multiple teams seeking a new head coach.
The Giants promoted offensive coordinator Mike Kafka to interim HC after Daboll was fired. Kafka will interview for the full-time position, although it is rare situations such as his result in a hire on that front. New York has been named on multiple occasions as a feasible landing spot for Kevin Stefanski, who was fired by the Browns yesterday. The Giants are among the teams he is expected to interview with.
Earlier today, New York also emerged as a potential suitor for Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph. Like Stefanski, Joseph has been a head coach in the NFL. Anarumo, by contrast, has never led a coaching staff at the pro or college levels. He could very well get the opportunity to do so in 2026, however, depending in part on how he interviews with the Giants.
Kevin Stefanski Expected To Interview With Giants, Falcons, Titans
9:22pm: Stefanski will indeed be interviewing with the Titans. Veteran reporter Paul Kuharsky reports that the ousted Browns coach will meet with Tennessee leadership on Saturday.
3:40pm: In the time leading up to ‘Black Monday,’ it became increasingly clear Kevin Stefanski‘s time in Cleveland was coming to an end. The Browns, as expected, fired him this morning. 
Many have pointed to Stefanski as one of the top head coaching candidates in the 2026 cycle. To no surprise, then, a list of prospective suitors has emerged in short order. Stefanski is expected to interview with the Giants, Falcons and Titans, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
Prior to his dismissal, Stefanski was named as a candidate to watch regarding the Giants. New York has used Mike Kafka in an interim capacity since firing Brian Daboll. Kafka will receive an interview for the full-time gig, but a number of outside options will be explored as well.
The Titans’ initial batch of interview requests came out earlier today. The Chiefs tandem of Matt Nagy and Steve Spagnuolo along with Broncos and Colts defensive coordinators Vance Joseph and Lou Anarumo have been targeted for an interview. Tennessee has also been mentioned as a likely suitor in the case of Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury. Stefanski represents another veteran play-caller on the offensive side of the ball as the Titans seek out Brian Callahan‘s replacement.
By Sunday night, Raheem Morris and Terry Fontenot had been fired by Atlanta. The team is nearing a hire for a new president of football operations position. Matt Ryan is the frontrunner for that role. Once a deal has been finalized in that respect, attention will turn to the HC and GM vacancies. Atlanta has already submitted interview requests with Klint Kubiak (offensive coordinator, Seahawks) and Anthony Weaver (defensive coordinator, Dolphins).
Stefanski won a pair of Coach of the Year awards during his six seasons with the Browns. Things have not gone according to plan since the start of 2024, however, a factor which was noted in the statement confirming his dismissal. Nevertheless, the 43-year-old is largely held in a high regard as a veteran offensive mind who has (at times) found success in spite of unenviable quarterback situations.
Developing any of Jaxson Dart, Cam Ward or Michael Penix Jr. would be seen as a top priority for Stefanski in the event of a hire. His interest in each of the vacancies in New York, Tennessee and Atlanta will be worth monitoring as the hiring landscape takes shape. Given the fact he is now unemployed, Stefanski is free to interview with teams at any time.

NFC East Notes: Eberflus, Giants, Biadasz
Matt Eberflus appears set to become a one-and-done DC in Dallas. Jerry Jones‘ comments point to a firing. The Cowboys finished last in points allowed and 30th in total defense. Jones identified the secondary as a particular concern area. The group has already undergone changes, beginning with the Trevon Diggs cut.
“Probably the one that I think was the most impactful is that we had a high expectation in our secondary, and I thought we would be good at all phases of it,” Jones said, via DallasCowboys.com’s Tommy Yarrish. “… The secondary really had issues regarding personnel, time on the field, time at practice. We weren’t ambitious, we knew some of those guys would be getting back [from injury]… I would say that’s the area.”
The Cowboys played a chunk of the season without Diggs, who has battled knee trouble since his September 2023 ACL tear, and placed the recently extended DaRon Bland on IR last month. The team did not see third-round rookie cornerback Shavon Revel debut until November due to a college ACL tear, and Kaiir Elam disappointed following an offseason trade. Pro Football Focus ranks safeties Malik Hooker, Donovan Wilson and Markquese Bell outside the top 65 at the position. Changes figure to come there as well.
While Jones said blame for the defensive issues is widespread, Eberflus is widely expected to be out. By 2026, the Cowboys should have a fourth DC this decade. Here is the latest from the NFC East:
- No official decision on Eberflus will come for more than a week, according to the Dallas Morning News’ Nick Harris. The Cowboys will wait on this, planning to conduct a review before determining their staff direction. It could be up to 12 days before a decision emerges. The Cowboys regularly operate methodically here, as their past two HC changes have shown. Eberflus will now wait for his likely pink slip.
- On the Diggs topic, Brian Schottenheimer confirmed the since-waived CB was not the only one to request to stay in Washington after the team’s Christmas game. Schottenheimer denied the other players’ requests as well, via the Dallas Morning News’ Joseph Hoyt, indicating such requests would only be granted for family emergencies. The Packers have since claimed Diggs, who made his debut with the team in Week 18.
- Giants ownership will be present for the upcoming coaching interviews, Joe Schoen confirmed (via the New York Post’s Ryan Dunleavy). John Mara is battling cancer, so it will be interesting to learn how involved he will be. Co-owner Steve Tisch is based in California and does not work in the building like Mara does.
- Brian Burns earned a nice pay bump based on a performance incentive. Burns collected a $1.8MM incentive for surpassing 12.5 sacks and earning a Pro Bowl nod, with Duggan adding the Giants edge rusher’s 2026 salary will increase by $1.8MM as a result. Burns, who finished with 16.5 sacks, is signed through the 2028 season.
- Von Miller also triggered an incentive, with the future Hall of Fame pass rusher’s ninth sack earning him an additional $1MM. Miller played on a contract that brought $6.1MM in base value plus incentives this season. He is interested in staying with the Commanders; the nine sacks were the 36-year-old’s most in a season since 2021.
- Tyler Biadasz is tied to a three-year, $30MM Commanders contract. The veteran center is entering a platform year in 2026, and The Athletic’s Nicki Jhabvala notes he is due a $1MM bonus on April 1. The former Cowboys starter, whom Jhabvala tabs an extension candidate, is tied to an $11MM cap hit for 2026.
Giants To Give Mike Kafka HC Interview
Interim head coaches have not enjoyed much success moving to full-time jobs. The only one to do so over the past nine offseasons — Antonio Pierce — was fired after his first full-time season. But teams regularly give their interims chances to interview.
That will be the case for the Giants, who are going to meet with Mike Kafka about their full-time HC post. Kakfa confirmed (via the New York Post’s Ryan Dunleavy) he will meet about the job. This had been expected, as Kafka was mentioned — along with Pierce — as being among Big Blue’s early candidates.
[RELATED: Giants To Retain GM Joe Schoen]
A collapse in Denver keyed a nine-game losing streak for New York. Brian Daboll received his walking papers midway through that skid, but Kafka lost his first five games as Giants interim HC. While he won the final two, both victories came over unmotivated teams. The Raiders deactivated Brock Bowers, Maxx Crosby and others, showing a clear interest in landing the No. 1 overall pick. The Giants snapped their skid in Las Vegas and then toppled the Cowboys, who benched Dak Prescott midway through the game.
This gave the Giants a 4-13 record, dropping them from the first pick to No. 5 overall over the past two weeks. Kafka yoyoed as the Giants’ play-caller during his four seasons as OC. Daboll gave Kafka the call sheet in 2022, allowing the former Chiefs assistant to call the signals in 2023 as well. After Daboll took the reins himself in 2024, Kafka was back at the controls to start this season. The Giants finished a respectable — all things considered — 17th in scoring offense and 13th in yardage despite starting three QBs (Russell Wilson, Jaxson Dart, Jameis Winston).
Kafka is no stranger to the HC interview process. He met with the Bears and Saints last year, taking two New Orleans meetings. He met with the Seahawks and Titans in 2024 and spoke with the Cardinals, Colts, Panthers and Texans in 2023.
It remains highly unlikely Kafka will receive the call to replace Daboll. The Giants went down this road before by appointing Ben McAdoo to succeed Tom Coughlin, and while Kafka staying would ensure Dart does not have to learn a second offense in two years, the Giants will probably follow the trend of passing over interim leaders to hire a more coveted candidate.
Giants To Retain GM Joe Schoen
The Giants are among the teams with a head coaching vacancy. They will not be hiring a new general manager this winter, though.
Joe Schoen has been informed he will remain in place for 2026, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports. That news comes as little surprise given recent reporting on where this situation stood. Schoen has been in place since 2022, having been hired alongside Brian Daboll that year. Daboll was fired midway through the campaign, but that has not led to a complete housecleaning.
As part of their statement announcing Schoen will remain in his post, the Giants said, “Continuity and stability in the front office is important to our progress.”
The Giants’ desire for front office stability will lead to a fifth season for Schoen, who will be in position to hire his second head coach. Schoen chose Daboll after the two formed a rapport working together in Buffalo. They initially fared well in New York, which finished 9-7-1 and earned a playoff berth in 2022. Daboll won Coach of the Year honors for his effort, but things spiraled from there. The Giants posted a combined 4-13 mark under Daboll and interim head coach Mike Kafka in 2025, their third straight year of missing the postseason. They’ve gone a dismal 13-38 since 2023.
Although the Schoen-led Giants have struggled mightily for most of his tenure, their head coaching vacancy is considered attractive based on some of the talent he has acquired. That includes Schoen draft picks in quarterback Jaxson Dart, wide receiver Malik Nabers, pass rushersKayvon Thibodeaux and Abdul Carter, and running back Cam Skattebo, among others.
Indeed, in their statement, the Giants noted, “We believe in our young core of talent, which we can build around for future success.”
In order for the Giants to get maximum value out of that “young core of talent,” Schoen can’t miss on another head coaching pick. Schoen, who’s leading the search, has already put together the list of candidates he’d like to interview, Connor Hughes of SNY reports. The 46-year-old said weeks ago that he didn’t expect his presence to scare away any potential hires. Fortunately for the Giants, they’ve received “positive feedback” from HC candidates over the decision to keep Schoen, per Josina Anderson of The Exhibit.
While the Giants haven’t formally requested any interviews yet, several names have come up in the rumor mill since Daboll’s firing in early November. Kafka, who went 2-5 in an interim role, may get a look, but Daboll’s full-time successor seems more likely to come from outside the organization.
Former Packers and Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, ex-Raiders HC and onetime Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce, Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady and Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb are among potential candidates who have emerged in recent days. Those are just a few possibilities, though, and Schoen is sure to discuss the position with several coaches as he attempts to turn around the franchise.
