New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is being retained by the team, owners John Mara and Steve Tisch confirmed in a statement shared on Monday (January 5).
"The 2025 season has been deeply disappointing, and the results on the field have not lived up to the standard this organization and our fans expect," the statement reads. "As previously stated, Joe Schoen will remain our General Manager and continue to lead our football operations and the search for our next head coach. Continuity and stability in the front office is important to our progress
"We believe in our young core of talent, which we can build around for future success."
Schoen has a 22-55-1 record during his four seasons with the Giants, which includes only one postseason appearance in that span and a 4-13 record in 2025.
Schoen hired Brian Daboll as the Giants' head coach shortly after his own hiring in 2022. Daboll won the Associated Press NFL Coach of the Year award during his first season, leading New York to a 9-7-1 record and its only postseason berth of his tenure, but suffered three consecutive losing seasons before being fired midway through the 2025 season in November.
Schoen was also infamously shown telling former Giants running back Saquon Barkley that they were going to allow him to test the free agent market on an episode of HBO's Hard Knocks prior to Barkley signing with the NFC East Division rival Philadelphia Eagles and having a career season that culminated with a Super Bowl LIX victory.
