New York Giants co-owner John Mara announced Monday that the team will retain both general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll for the 2025 season.

Mara made the stunning announcement as "Black Monday" in the NFL got underway. Mara appeared to go against what many fans and reporters thought was going to be the start of another rebuild, especially after the decision to cut quarterback Daniel Jones in November.

However, Schoen and Daboll get at least one more year to help build New York back into a winning franchise.

"Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll will continue in their respective roles with the organization," Mara said in a statement. "As disappointing as the results of the season have been, (co-owner Steve Tisch) and I remain confident in the process that Joe and Brian have implemented and their vision for our team.

"We look forward to the future and achieving the results we all desire."

The Giants’ tumultuous 2024 season started with their decision to let running back Saquon Barkley go during free agency. Barkley signed with the Philadelphia Eagles and had the second-best season a running back could have, finishing with 2,005 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns.
