The Colts announced that they have completed their interview with Giants OC Mike Kafka for their vacant head coaching position.
We have completed an interview with Mike Kafka.

Kafka already has interviews set up with the Panthers and Texans and is turning into an in-demand coaching option this year, understandably so given New York’s success on offense.
Here’s the full list of candidates for the Colts so far:
Kafka, 35, is a former fourth-round pick of the Eagles back in 2010. He played for a number of teams including the Patriots, Jaguars, Buccaneers, Vikings, Titans, and most recently for the Bengals back in 2015.
Kafka worked for Northwestern as an offensive graduate assistant in 2016 before agreeing to take over as the Chiefs’ offensive quality control coach in 2017. Kansas City promoted him to QB coach in 2018 before promoting him to QB coach/passing game coordinator in 2020.
He later landed the job as the Giants offensive coordinator back in February of 2022 and helped the team to the playoffs as they ranked 15th in points per game and 18th in yards per game.
We’ll have more on the Colts’ coaching search as the news is available.
