Giants general manager Joe Schoen enters season with renewed internal support

New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen remains a central figure in the front office as the team prepares to open the 2026 season. Despite the team missing expectations over the last four seasons, the organization has entered a new phase under head coach John Harbaugh. Ownership has provided both the staff and the roster a transition to a new standard of operations, effectively offering Schoen a fresh start alongside his new head coach. Schoen continues to collaborate with Harbaugh on roster development and team strategy heading into the season opener. The team is scheduled to play the Dallas Cowboys in a prime-time game on September 13. While past personnel decisions, including the release of former first-round pick Evan Neal, remain part of his record, management is now focused on the current and future trajectory of the franchise under the new coaching leadership.
