After 18 years in Baltimore, John Harbaugh faces his biggest challenge yet: Turning around the New York Giants
On Sunday, September 13, 2026, head coach John Harbaugh makes his regular-season debut for the New York Giants, facing the Dallas Cowboys in a divisional matchup in New Jersey that could set the tone for the season.
Leaving the Baltimore Ravens, Harbaugh brings a resume from his 18 years in Baltimore that includes 12 playoff trips and a 180-113 record.
General Manager Joe Schoen has sought Harbaugh's counsel frequently this offseason on personnel matters, while second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart prepares to lead the offense under the new regime.
Tight end Isaiah Likely says the transition feels normal, while cornerback Greg Newsome II credits Harbaugh for disciplined, physical play as the Giants aim to improve on last year's 4-13 record.
Striving for immediate success, Harbaugh stated earlier this month, "we'll be playing to win every single one of our games," emphasizing his non-compromised football principles.
