Overview
- General manager Joe Schoen remains in place and will lead the search for a permanent head coach.
- The move came a day after a 20–24 loss to the Bears in which New York surrendered a 10-point lead late.
- New York is 2–8 this season, and Daboll’s overall record with the Giants was 20–40–1 following a 2022 playoff run that earned him Coach of the Year.
- Injuries have hit the roster hard, with Malik Nabers and Cam Skattebo out for the season and rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart leaving Sunday’s game with a concussion as Russell Wilson finished at quarterback.
- A single-outlet report alleged owner John Mara threatened to fire Daboll on a mid-October flight after a loss, reflecting tensions that preceded the decision.
