Giants hire John Harbaugh, quarterback Jaxson Dart praises new era as Malik Nabers faces second knee surgery

John Harbaugh Jaxson Dart Malik Nabers knee surgery Giants

The New York Giants entered the 2026 season with former Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh at the helm. Quarterback Jaxson Dart said in an ESPN interview that Harbaugh’s “physical, violent” approach matches the team’s hunger to win and that the new offensive pieces, including recent free‑agency signings, should boost the offense.

Wide receiver Malik Nabers, the Giants’ 2024 sixth‑overall pick, suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in Week 4 of the 2025 season. After an initial surgery in October, he underwent a second procedure weeks later to remove scar tissue and address stiffness. Sources say the “clean‑up” surgery is not expected to alter his projected timeline, with the team hoping he will be ready for training camp and potentially the Week 1 opener against the Dallas Cowboys.
