These are Giants’ key storylines for fascinating 2025 season | NJ.com

Weapons other than Malik Nabers: Everyone knows that Nabers will be a huge part of the Giants’ offense, as he was in 2024, when he excelled as a rookie. But Nabers’ production ultimately mattered little in a disastrous season. The Giants this past offseason did not make any significant additions at wide receiver. So they’ll run it back with Darius Slayton, Wan’Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt as complementary pieces to Nabers. Second-year tight end Theo Johnson remains unproven. And can running back Tyrone Tracy build on his solid 2024 season, while also cutting down on fumbles? Lots of potential issues here.

Russell Wilson era for NY Giants arrives with undeniable question: How long will it last?| The Record

The New York Giants can’t wait to see how Russell Wilson will change their offense, having brought a much-needed infusion of steadiness and conviction at quarterback.

The rest of the NFL – at least most of the league anyway – is waiting to pontificate on what will happen next if and when Wilson struggles on the field when the lights go on and the games actually count.

Presser Points: Takeaways from Coach Brian Daboll | Giants.com

Asked about having packages for multiple quarterbacks, Daboll said every situation and year is different. “We’ll see how it goes. … We’ll do what we think is best.”

Expectations for Giants brass should be crystal clear in Year 4: It’s win or go home | The Athletic

That’s fine because the expectations should be clear: This team needs to WIN. Now, there isn’t a stated playoff mandate from ownership, nor is there a magic number of wins that will ensure a fifth season for this regime. However, Schoen and Daboll are fortunate that they were granted a fourth season. It would be nearly impossible to survive a third straight season of double-digit losses.

This isn’t the time for excuses about injuries, a tough schedule or a young roster. It’s completely fair and reasonable to expect a regime to be a contender in its fourth season.
