The 2026 regular season is finally upon us, and here's one question facing the New York Giants out of the gate.
New York is adding Dean Lowry to its practice squad, giving general manager Joe Schoen the extra defensive line depth he said last week he wanted to add.
John Harbaugh and Jaxson Dart lead the New York Giants' massive reset, but questions linger about a defense that bled big plays last season.
The New York Giants (0-0) are set to begin the 2026 season with a matchup against the Dallas Cowboys (0-0) at MetLife Stadium, but they'll be doing so as underdogs in Week 1.
Lowry, a veteran of nine NFL seasons, began his NFL career as a fourth-round pick of the Green Bay Packers out of Northwestern in 2016. After seven seasons with the Packers, Lowry played one year with the Minnesota Vikings before playing the last two seasons for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
