New York Giants coach Brian Daboll is reportedly prepared to fight for his job with a very “detailed” pitch to John Mara and Steve Tisch.
They all wished Good Riddance to this 100th anniversary season from hell, and now it is D-Day for Brian Daboll.
PHILADELPHIA — The Giants have forfeited the right to be taken seriously as an NFL franchise until further notice. Sunday’s developments appeared to indicate that co-owners John Mara and Steve Tisch could retain Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll as GM and head coach for 2025.
After a disappointing 3-14 season, the New York Giants said, Monday, it would keep general manager Joe Schoen and coach Brian Daboll, stating the team is confident in their "vision."
The two teams picking ahead of Giants in the NFL Draft, the Titans and the Browns, could each use a quarterback, too.
Brian Daboll and the New York Giants wrap up the 2024 NFL season against the Philadelphia Eagles, Sunday, Jan. 5, 2025, at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Eagles won, 20-13.
Giants president John Mara confirmed that both both his head coach and GM would be returning for the 2025-26 season.
The New York Giants are sticking with general manager Joe Schoen and coach Brian Daboll. Owner and team president John Mara announced Monday that he and co-owner Steve Tisch decided to move forward with the Giants’ current leadership even after a 3-14 season that ranks among the franchise’s worst.
The Giants passed over Lock, the clear-cut No. 2 quarterback for the first 10 weeks of the season, in favor of DeVito heading into the game against the Bucs. The Giants switched quarterbacks (in part because of injury) three more times before all was said and done.
Schoen gave quarterback Drew Lock a one-year, $5 million contract to be the backup plan for Jones. But when the Giants moved on from Jones, they leap-frogged Lock for No. 3 quarterback Tommy DeVito. Lock eventually made five starts and, aside from an inexplicable virtuoso performance in a win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 17, it was ugly.
The two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback thinks it’s a smart move by Giants ownership to stay the course with the current regime.
