The next time we see the Giants on a football field it\u2019ll be in Week 1, on Sunday Night Football against the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants are currently 2.5-point underdogs for Week 1, with their over\/under for the season at 7.5 wins, <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsbook.fanduel.com\/navigation\/nfl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">per FanDuel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">But despite the Giants being expected to finish last in the division with a losing record, John Harbaugh is the favorite to win AP Coach of the Year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Of course, we don\u2019t know exactly who will make up the 2026 Giants\u2019 53-man roster, and the next order of business is to trim the roster down from 90 to 53 players by 6 p.m. ET on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">So far, the Giants have traded a pair of backup offensive linemen, Daniel Faalele (to the Jacksonville Jaguars) and Joshua Ezeudu (to the Kansas City Chiefs), and John Harbaugh has indicated that the team is willing to engage in more trade talks. Can the Giants get some kind of return for players they don\u2019t have room for on their final roster? And, of course, there are always surprise cuts at the end of the preseason.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">So follow along here as we track all of the moves as the Giants trim their offseason roster down to their initial 53-man roster.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">While there hasn\u2019t been a cut yet, John Harbaugh confirmed that Dominic Zvada will be the Giants\u2019 placekicker.
