The New York Giants have announced that they will retain head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen for the 2025 season despite a disappointing 3-14 record. Team owner John Mara met with Daboll and Schoen on Friday and stated that he remains confident in the process they have implemented and believes in their vision for the team. Mara, who expressed that he has 'run out of patience,' cited Daboll's success as Coach of the Year two years ago and said he believes that success can be replicated. He also emphasized that finding a new quarterback is the team's number one priority this offseason. Additionally, Mara discussed whether Daboll should continue calling offensive plays, suggesting that this is a decision that will be evaluated moving forward. The decision to retain Daboll and Schoen reflects the ownership's desire for stability and belief in their ability to improve the team's performance in the near future.
