New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka interviewed with three teams for their vacant head coaching positions this past Sunday — the Houston Texans, Carolina Panthers, and Indianapolis Colts.
At least one of those teams liked what they heard enough to schedule a second interview.
ESPN’s Field Yates reports that Kafka will meet with the Texans for a second time.
The Texans will be interviewing Giants OC Mike Kafka for a second time for their head coaching opening, per source.
Kafka has interviewed for 3 of 5 head coaching vacancies after helping the Giants turn their offense around this season.

Kafka, who met virtually with the Texans the first time, will conduct an in-person meeting on Wednesday.
“It’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of those conversations and be a part of that process,” Kafka said earlier this month.
The 35-year-old Kafka helped return the Giants’ offense to respectability during his first season on the job. They finished 15th in scoring, fourth in rushing, and 18th in total yards.
The Giants obviously hope to retain Kafka but will support him if he lands a head coaching job.
