Getty New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll.
Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen are the next dream team tasked with reviving the New York Giants. They are having to sift through the wreckage of the Joe Judge and Dave Gettleman era, but there’s still cause for optimism Big Blue can at least be competitive in 2022.
The optimism stems from Daboll’s proven flair as an offensive-minded play-caller who developed Josh Allen with the Buffalo Bills. He’s inherited some talent, including running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver Kadarius Toney.
General manager Schoen added to the talent pool by knocking his first draft out of the park with the selections of edge-rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux and tackle Evan Neal in the first round.
If you don’t have cable and you live in the Giants market, you can watch a live stream of every game on FuboTV, which includes CBS, Fox, NBC, ESPN, NFL Network, NFL RedZone and comes with a free trial.
That’s the best option if you’re cutting cable, but there are some other alternatives, including some for out-of-market viewers, so here’s a full guide on the different ways to watch Giants games streaming live online in 2022:

New York Giants 2022 Season Preview
Daboll turned the Allen-led Bills into one of the NFL’s most potent offenses, but can he do the same with Daniel Jones as his quarterback? The sixth-overall pick in 2019 has yet to convince his doubters he can make the grade, the main reason the Giants opted against picking up Jones’ fifth-year option.
It’s seems likely Daboll and Schoen share those doubts, based on a report from ESPN’s Brady Henderson about interest in trading for Russell Wilson this offseason: “The Seahawks received calls from the Broncos and several other teams, including the Saints, New York Giants and Washington Commanders.”
The Giants aren’t moving on from Jones yet, so this season is about helping him thrive. Daboll thinks letting former Kansas City Chiefs quarterbacks coach Mike Kafka call plays will be a bonus, per NJ.com’s Bob Brookover: “I love calling plays. But I think Mike has done a good job and I have a lot of faith in him. I think there has been a good rapport between him and Daniel. That’s the voice (Jones) has been hearing in the preseason and every practice and I’ve been pleased with Mike and really the entire coaching staff.”
Jones is under pressure to finally deliver the goods in an offense built to let the QB flourish. If he can’t, Jones will waste some intriguing skills players and a defense that should be well above average in the rankings.
Best Fantasy Option: Saquon Barkley
If he stays healthy, there’s no Giants player better for fantasy owners than Barkley. He’s a gifted, big-play runner, whose game-breaking speed defenses have to respect.
Barkley can also make an impact as a receiver, something Daboll plans to make more use of this season, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN:
Most notable observation from OTA #9 was that Saquon Barkley was getting a TON of work as a receiver. His involvement in the passing game appears on the rise. 📈
Daboll loves to spread the field with four- and five-receiver sets, something that will boost Barkley’s numbers in both phases of the offense.
Rookie to Watch: Wan’Dale Robinson
It says a lot neither Thibodeaux nor Neal belongs in this spot. Instead, the rookie to keep an eye on is second-rounder Wan’Dale Robinson, a slot receiver with speed to burn.
The Giants surprised many when they took Robinson off the board with the 43rd pick. He’s already confounded initial expectations, earning a starting spot on the opening depth chart.
Robinson caught 104 passes for 1,334 yards with Kentucky in 2021. He also rushed for 691 yards and four touchdowns during his collegiate career.
Daboll and Kafka both come from teams where skill players are used in a variety of ways, a trend that looks set to continue with Robinson based on this reverse against the New York Jets in preseason:
WAN’DALE 👏
Robinson and Toney should both play a similar role, with the rookie getting a variety of touches each week.
Best Newcomer: Kayvon Thibodeaux
The Giants need a game-wrecking pass-rusher in the worst way and that’s just what Thibodeaux can become in this defense. He’s got the quick takeoff, raw power and relentless closing speed to live in opposing backfields as a rookie.
Those skills will immediately be at home in a pressure-crazed scheme called by former Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Don ‘Wink’ Martindale. It will also help Thibodeaux to play on the edges of a formidable defensive line led by Leonard Williams and Dexter Lawrence II, two immovable forces in the trenches who will keep blockers away from Thibodeaux and the rest of the outside rushers.
Thibodeaux injured his knee against the Cincinnati Bengals in preseason, but he was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, September 7, per the team’s official site. There’s every chance he’ll be able to hit the ground running at the start of his debut campaign in the pros.
Key Returning Veteran: Sterling Shepard
Like Toney and Barkley, Sterling Shephard has also missed significant time with various injuries. Concussions and an Achilles tear have cost this capable wideout 20 games across the last three seasons.
For a rare time, Shepard is healthy, something that’s great news for Daboll and Jones. Shepard is a deft route-runner who can win consistently from the slot on option and choice patterns. The longer he stays on the field, the more he’ll provide Jones with easy targets.
Staying on the field is the vital theme for these Giants. If Jones, Barkley, Toney and Shepard can do that, the new-look offense will make some noise and finally ease the burden on a talented but overworked defense.
