The Giants’ Upcoming Season: John Harbaugh Takes the Helm

John Harbaugh’s influence is clearly in play as the Giants prepare for their season, featuring four prime-time games this year. Notably, two of these nationally broadcasted games will occur within the first two weeks.

This schedule will definitely test Harbaugh, who’s stepping into his new role as head coach with the Giants.

They’ll kick off the season on Sunday Night Football against the Cowboys at MetLife Stadium, followed by a Monday Night Football clash with the Rams at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, during Week 2.

After just seven games, the Giants will have a bye in Week 8.

As the season wraps up, they’ll face off against familiar NFC East rivals, first against the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and then the Eagles at home in Week 18.

The full NFL schedule for 2026 is set to be revealed on Thursday, May 14th, at 8:00 PM ET.
