Overview
- Harbaugh told fans at Monday's Town Hall that past results do not matter and said building through daily practice is how the Giants become “good enough” to kick the Cowboys’ ass, drawing a standing ovation.
- The Giants open Harbaugh’s tenure on Sunday Night Football on Sept. 13 against Dallas at MetLife Stadium, and after the remarks, Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb replied on social media, “lol that’s cute.”
- Edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux leaned into the rivalry by saying “I hate them” about the Cowboys and described the new practice environment as hard and different in a good way.
- New York overhauled the roster under Harbaugh and GM Joe Schoen, trading DT Dexter Lawrence to the Bengals for the No. 10 pick and drafting LB Arvell Reese at No. 5 and OL Francis Mauigoa at No. 10.
- The reset comes after years of NFC East struggles, including two wins in the last 18 meetings with Dallas, making Week 1 a first on-field test of the new approach.
