The New York Giants recently extended the contract of general manager Joe Schoen after he had another strong offseason.
That's all fine and good with the team's new head coach, John Harbaugh, with whom Schoen has worked hand-in-hand since Harbaugh was hired in January to transform the Giants back into winners.
"I was happy. He's a good guy. Enjoy working with him and looking forward to what we all can do together. That's a good thing," Harbaugh told reporters. "They asked me if I liked Joe, and I thought he did a good job, and I said yeah. It's the decision of the people I respect -- I respect the ownership group. It's their call, and that's their call, and they made it, and I respect it. I think it's a good decision. I agree with it, but I think that's good. I'm excited."
Schoen has been the Giants' general manager since 2022. The Giants qualified for the postseason that year with a 9-7-1 record, but have gone just 13-38 since. The club fired head coach Brian Daboll in November last season but chose to retain Schoen. His partnership with Harbaugh, along with the redefining of his responsibilities, has worked very well thus far.
Harbaugh signed with the Giants after an 18-season tenure with the Baltimore Ravens, which was highlighted by 193 victories, 12 postseason appearances, and a Super Bowl championship.
Harbaugh's deal is for five years, $100 million. Schoen's contract terms have not yet been disclosed.
