Now the hunt is on to replace both assistants and USA TODAY’s Art Stapleton reports that the Giants could be honing in on Marquand Manuel for one of those roles.

The New York Giants and Detroit Lions went in two entirely different directions this season but their starting point was the same. Back in early August, the Giants and Lions kicked off the preseason with a pair of joint practices ahead of their first exhibition game. Those practices were especially physical, highlighted by countless fights and massive fines levied by the NFL. Despite the violent nature of those practices, both head coaches — Brian Daboll and Dan Campbell — dismissed it as nothing more than football. “It’s no big deal,” Campbell said at the time. Daboll and Campbell are old-school…

The New York Giants have made it clear that finding their quarterback of the future is the No. 1 priority this offseason. What is unclear, however, is who that player will be. The Giants hold the third overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft and have approximately $60 million in available cap space to work with. In his latest mock, Dane Brugler of The Athletic believes Big Blue won’t take either of this year’s top two prospects (Miami’s Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders of Colorado). Brugler believes Tennessee will snatch up Ward with the first overall pick and that Sanders…
A win for Leinster today will ensure top spot from Group A but they face a tough task against Premiership leaders Bath.
The New York Giants wrapped up the worst season in franchise history earlier this month, finishing the year with a record of 3-14. There weren’t many reasons for celebration or enthusiasm, but there’s at least one small silver lining and a reason to be optimistic about the future: The 2024 NFL draft class and undrafted free agent signings. After two less-than-stellar drafts, general manager Joe Schoen made the most of his six picks last April. Not only did every rookie he selected contribute, but they all started at one point and are poised to play pivotal roles in the future.…

Former New York Giants linebacker Tae Crowder will return to football in 2025, officially signing with the UFL’s Birmingham Stallions. Crowder, 27, was selected in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL draft at No. 255 overall. Since he was the final pick in the draft, Crowder was labeled “Mr. Irrelevant.” In addition to his time with the Giants, Crowder also had stints with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Los Angeles Chargers, and Tennessee Titans before sitting out the 2024 season. During his time with the Giants, Crowder created some controversy by tweeting “free me” in 2022. He later apologized to his…

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nahers set several franchise records — and some NFL ones — this season but admits he didn’t do it without some help. During a recent sitdown for Giants Conversations, Nabers credited veteran teammate Darius Slayton with helping him prepare for both the season and individual games and matchups. Malik Nabers says that Darius Slayton played a pivotal role in his record breaking rookie season. He even went so far as to create cut-ups for the receivers, detailing how each defensive back would play and their tendencies.#Giants #NFL pic.twitter.com/WbMuCdFbtZ — The Giants Report (@giantsreport1)…
The 2024 regular season was a tough one for the New York Giants, who finished with a 3-14 record and the No. 3 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. For much of the rookie class, losing to such a degree was similar to experiencing culture shock. Most were highly successful in college and conditioned to win, so the lack of success took a toll. “It’s tough coming in every week and trying to put your best foot forward, and falling short is not easy, but it’s hard to win games in this league. I think the struggles that we…
Pittsburgh has no plans to move on, however Pittsburgh has no plans to move on, however Getty Images Mike Tomlin will return as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, despite going one-and-done in the playoffs for the fourth time in five years. That hasn’t stopped at least two other NFL teams from exploring a trade for the former Super Bowl champion, according to ESPN, including the Chicago Bears. The Bears recently called the Steelers and requested to speak with Tomlin, per ESPN, but were denied permission. At least one other team, meanwhile, recently explored the possibility of a trade for…
