How ex-Giants fared during the 2023 regular season
The 2023 regular season has come to a close and now the final four teams are headed into Conference Championship Weekend. In the blink of an eye, the league will be preparing for Super Bowl Sunday.
Several former members of the New York Giants are still coaching and playing, and The Big Game will feature at least a handful of those.
