John Harbaugh Sets Giants' Tone With Practice-First Pledge To 'Kick The Cowboys' Ass'

The message signals a tougher reset heading into OTAs before a Week 1 home date with Dallas.

Overview

  • The head coach, speaking at a Manhattan town hall Monday, dismissed recent NFC East results and said daily practice is the path to being good enough to beat Dallas.
  • Fans answered with a 'Cowboys suck!' chant and gave him a standing ovation in the Beacon Theatre.
  • Harbaugh leads the first OTA practice Tuesday, with his Giants debut set for Sunday Night Football in Week 1 against the Cowboys at MetLife Stadium.
  • Edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux backed the tougher approach, calling the work 'hard' and 'different in a great way' after lighter practice loads under Brian Daboll.
  • Rookie back Cam Skattebo, rehabbing a dislocated ankle and fractured tibia, predicted a 2,000-yard season and said he expects to be ready for Week 1.
