The New York Giants and New York Jets square off under the lights at MetLife Stadium on Saturday, August 16, 2025, at 7:00PM, in a must-watch preseason opener that sets the tone for both teams. Though technically an exhibition, this cross-town rivalry game always delivers regular-season intensity.

Expect to see top prospects, returning stars shaking off the offseason, and coaching staffs putting their early strategies to the test.
The Jets, revitalized by a young quarterback and aggressive defense, are out to prove their rebuild is behind them. Meanwhile, the Giants, coming off an improved season, are focused on fine-tuning a roster with playoff aspirations. While the official win/loss record may not count—momentum, chemistry, and city pride certainly do.
