Here is everything to know about the Giants' 2026 NFL schedule.
This is what is in store for coach John Harbaugh in his first season with the team. He'll get an early chance to impress Giants fans, beginning with a primetime matchup against the Cowboys at MetLife Stadium.
It should be fun.on "Sunday Night Football," but they have four total primetime games this season. New York plays on the road for "Monday Night Football" Week 2 against the Rams, will be on "Thursday Night Football" against the Commanders and has another Monday night game later in the season against the Lions. There are high expectations now for Big Blue with Harbaugh and second-year quarterbackWeek 1 against the Cowboys.
The Giants can't afford to lose at home, not with a really tough primetime game on deck in Los Angeles against the Rams. New York has made the playoffs just twice in the previous 14 seasons. Only twice during that span has it won the opener -- 2016 and 2022. Both times the team made the playoffs.
That's what makes this Cowboys game so massive and the one to circle, even with revenge games against Daboll in Week 3 and Jones in Week 12 coming later in the season. Giants will enter their Week 8 bye week with a winning record. Doing that will have to involve beating the Cowboys or the Rams in one of the first two games. There are some opportunities for wins early in the season for the Giants.
Of their first seven opponents, only the Rams and Texans had winning records last season. Four of the first six games are also at home. Starting strong will be imperative, especially considering their stretch run could be a gauntlet. The Giants close with road games in Detroit and Dallas before hosting the Eagles in their finale.
That could be tough. Throw in San Francisco, Seattle and Indianapolis in late November and early December and it could be difficult to find wins late in the year. Those six opponents combined for a 61-40-1 record last season. Have a breaking news tip or an idea for a story we should cover?
