The New York Giants have just completed a season in which the famed NFL franchise defied odds and reached the playoffs with head coach Brian Daboll changing the culture of the team.
Even though the Giants were competing in one of the toughest divisions in the league, Daboll was able to motivate his players to give their all in every game and as a result was able to pull off a major upset against the Vikings in Minnesota in the playoffs.
With Daboll helping turn things around for the franchise, the Giants will be a team to watch in 2023, especially after acquiring Darren Waller this offseason.
New York rushed ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft and struck a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders to acquire arguably one of the best tight ends in the game, which Michael Robinson says will be a game-changer for the Giants through NFL Total Access.

Although Waller has struggled with injuries for the past two years, Waller will play a big role for the Giants in 2023 and could quickly become one of Daniel Jones’ favorite targets in the passing game.
Waller has played just 20 games over the past two seasons after being named Pro Bowler for the first time in his career in 2020 with the Raiders.
During his Pro Bowl season, Waller racked up 1,196 yards and 11 receiving touchdowns, both of which were career highs for the star tight end.
Last season, Waller caught 28 passes for 388 yards and three touchdowns in nine games.
