Based on the Rooney Rule’s language, if the Giants lose one of these two men (Brown or Kafka), they would get a compensatory third-round draft pick in both 2025 and 2026. If the Giants lose both, they would get an extra such comp pick in 2027 — but not a fourth such comp pick in 2028.

With Glenn going to New York, Johnson heading to Chicago and Mike Vrabel already in New England, four head coaching vacancies remain. The Saints, Jaguars, Raiders and Cowboys are still in the hunt. Johnson, who was Detroit’s offensive coordinator, picked the Bears on Monday, two days after the No. 1 seeded Lions lost to Washington.

The Cowboys interviewed Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who played for the team and then served as Dak Prescott’s play-caller for four seasons. Dallas also interviewed former Jets coach Robert Saleh and former Vikings coach Leslie Frazier.

The New York Giants will hire former New York Jets safeties coach Marquand Manuel as their defensive backs coach.

Brown, who interviewed for the Raiders GM job, will now return to the Giants for a fourth season barring anything unexpected.

With Johnson heading to Chicago and Mike Vrabel already in New England, five head coaching vacancies remain. The Jets, Saints, Jaguars, Raiders and Cowboys are still in the hunt. Johnson, who was Detroit’s offensive coordinator, agreed to become the Chicago Bears head coach on Monday, two days after the No. 1 seeded Lions lost to Washington.
