Indeed, head coach Brian Daboll has lost all credibility with two horrible NFL future Odds seasons that followed a surprise playoff run in 2022. Now, 2025 brings change for the New York Giants as Russell Wilson arrives. It is a dramatic change of quarterbacks and style. The Giants cut quarterback Daniel Jones after signing him to a four-year, $160 million contract extension two years ago. Following his lone good season for New York. That was perfect timing for Jones, as the Giants entered 2022, passing on his fifth-year option and signaling that they would be looking elsewhere.

The New York Giants defense forced only five interceptions in 2024. Overall, that was the second-fewest in the league, and they went 11 consecutive games without generating an interception. It was the longest such streak in NFL history. That’s why New York spent big to sign New Orleans Saints cornerback Paulson Adebo (three years, $54 million with $38.5 million guaranteed). Also, Miami Dolphins safety Jevon Holland was signed (three years, $45.3 million with $30.3 million guaranteed). Both were solid sports betting additions.
Additionally, the Giants also had one of the better 2025 NFL draft classes in the league. New York took the draft’s best edge rusher prospect in Penn State All-American Abdul Carter third overall. Also, they took a decent defensive tackle in Darius Alexander in the third round. And then they took college football’s second-leading rusher, Cam Skattebo, in the fourth round.
Most important of all, New York reached out to draft Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart. They traded back up into the first round to get him. Dart showed clear issues getting past his first two reads in his progressions and reading zone coverage.
Of great concern is that new starting QB Russell Wilson, who is 36, faded hard down the stretch of the 2024 season: The Steelers lost his final five starts, and he averaged under 200 yards passing per game.
New York Giants Team History
Head coach Bill Parcells was not well-known when he took over Big Blue in 1983. But by the time Parcells left in 1991, the Giants had won two Super Bowl championships and regained national respect as a power franchise. Parcells was later enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Two of the greatest wins in franchise history came under the leadership of head coach Tom Coughlin. To illustrate, in 2007, the Giants were a wild card playoff team but made it to the Super Bowl, where they ended the New England Patriots’ bid for an undefeated season. Next, in 2011, the Giants were again wild-card Super Bowl champions over the Patriots. Coughlin had Eli Manning as his quarterback in those days. Manning is a future Hall of Famer who rewrote the Giants’ passing record book.
