Giants and Cowboys prepare for 2026 season opener

Overview

The New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys are set to face each other in the 2026 NFL season opener on Sunday night at MetLife Stadium. This matchup marks the debut of Giants head coach John Harbaugh and Cowboys defensive coordinator Christian Parker.

Significant attention is focused on Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers, whose availability remains uncertain following a torn ACL and meniscus injury that required two surgeries. Although medically cleared, Nabers expressed caution regarding his return, stating, “I can’t put my career at risk,” and noted that the final decision to play rests with him.

The Cowboys enter the contest as betting favorites. Their roster includes quarterback Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens, supported by a revamped defense featuring new additions Rashan Gary and Malachi Lawrence. The Giants have also implemented roster changes, including the addition of punter Jordan Stout and rookie specialists Dominic Zvada and Ben Mann.
