Mike Kafka is familiar with the Eagles, the fans, and how sports radio works in Philadelphia. The Eagles’ offensive coordinator job is highly visible and one many top candidates covet, as it often leads to a head coach gig. Another offensive coordinator candidate will now be lining up for that opportunity after Kevin Patullo was removed as the Eagles’ offensive coordinator on Tuesday. Patullo could still remain on staff, but his time as the play caller has ended.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Eagles interviewed the Giants‘ interim head coach/OC Mike Kafka for their offensive coordinator opening.

Kafka was once a backup quarterback for the Eagles before joining Andy Reid’s coaching staff and developing into one of the NFL’s bright young minds. After Brian Daboll was fired, he was named the Giants’ interim head coach and did well calling plays for Jaxson Dart, effectively using the former Ole Miss quarterback’s running skills while finding passing lanes and implementing innovative concepts despite not having Malik Nabers available.
