Giants Owner Almost Fired Coach Brian Daboll After Collapse

UPDATE: New reports confirm that New York Giants owner John Mara nearly fired head coach Brian Daboll following a devastating loss to the Denver Broncos just three weeks ago. The Giants, currently struggling with a dismal record of 2-7 and a three-game losing streak, continue to face an uphill battle this season.

In a shocking turn of events, the Giants squandered a 26-8 lead against the Broncos, ultimately losing 33-32. According to WFAN 660’s Shaun Morash, immediate reactions from Giants ownership indicated that Daboll was set to be fired “off the plane” after that collapse. Morash stated, “Ownership got together, cooler heads prevailed, and they decided not to fire Brian Daboll off the plane in Denver.”

Though Daboll’s position seems secure for now, the pressure is mounting as the team grapples with significant injuries, losing breakout rookie running back Cam Skattebo and star receiver Malik Nabers for the season. The future looks brighter with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart at the helm, but the immediate fate of the franchise rests heavily on Daboll’s performance.

Daboll, a former AP NFL Coach of the Year, is acutely aware of his precarious situation. At a media availability on Friday, he responded to the swirling rumors: “There are a lot of reports out there. So, I don’t think you focus on those; you focus on the things you can control.”

With the Giants desperate for stability, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Mara has expressed a desire for continuity within the franchise, but as the team continues to falter, the question remains—how long will Daboll keep his job?

As the season progresses, all eyes will be on the Giants and their head coach. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see if Daboll can turn the tide and prove he deserves to remain at the helm.
