New York Giants fans, there's a fresh breeze blowing through the Meadowlands this offseason, and it's carrying the distinct scent of optimism. General Manager Joe Schoen isn't just talking the talk—he's confidently declaring that the franchise has racked up "a lot of wins" since January, and he's got the receipts to back it up.
The buzz started with a bold move that set the tone for everything that followed: the hiring of new head coach John Harbaugh. In an appearance on NFL Network's The Insiders, Schoen revealed that the Giants were not only the first team to interview Harbaugh but also the only one. That swift, decisive action was just the beginning of what Schoen describes as a seamless offseason.
"It started with the interview process," Schoen explained. "We were the first team to interview him and the only team to interview him. Going through free agency, the draft, and the combine were all positive developments. Communicating on how to put together a roster and a coaching staff went well. It felt like we have had a lot of wins from January to today. The relationship has been great."
And the momentum didn't stop there. After the mid-season departure of Brian Daboll, the Giants rebuilt their coaching staff from the ground up. Free agency saw strategic additions, and the 2026 NFL draft became a showcase of the shared vision between Schoen and Harbaugh, as they zeroed in on key roster needs with precision.
Harbaugh, for his part, is equally enthusiastic about the partnership. Speaking after the draft, he didn't hold back his praise for the front office. "I feel great about how it's gone," Harbaugh said. "Starting from the ground up, looking at the staff and the scouts and everything, it's a great group. It's a great group that Joe put together."
This unified front is a welcome change for a franchise that has faced its share of turbulence. Earlier whispers about Schoen's job security have been silenced by this clear alignment at the top. With a stable front office and a head coach who's fully bought in, the Giants are positioning themselves for a serious comeback in the NFC East.
Whether you're stocking up on fresh gear for the season ahead or just soaking in the good vibes, one thing is clear: the Giants are building something special, and the wins are already starting to pile up.
