- John Harbaugh will coach his first Giants game on Sept. 13 in Sunday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys.
- Dallas Cowboys have won six of the last seven Week 1 meetings with the Giants, and the Giants are 1‑9 against Dallas over the past five seasons.
- New York Giants finished last in the NFC East for two straight seasons and have only one postseason appearance since 2016.
- Jaxson Dart is slated to start at quarterback for the Giants, his first major matchup against Dak Prescott.
- Arvell Reese, the Giants’ 5th‑overall draft pick, will debut as a linebacker alongside Cowboys safety Caleb Downs, the 11th‑overall pick.
Why it matters: The Giants aim to reverse a 1‑9 recent record vs Dallas and boost viewership for their new coach, while the Cowboys seek to extend their Week 1 dominance; a primetime win would lift New York’s ticket sales and advertising revenue.
