The New York Giants are a professional NFL team based in the New York metropolitan area. The Giants compete in the NFL as a member of the Eastern Division of the National Conference. The team plays its home games at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, which it shares with the New York Jets.

The Giants were one of five teams to join the NFL in 1925, and are the only team in that group still in existence, as well as the oldest team in the league in the northeastern United States. The team is the third largest championship winner among all NFL franchises with eight championship titles: four in the pre-Super Bowl era (1927, 1934, 1938, 1956) and four since the advent of the Super Bowl (XXI, XXV, XLII and XLVI). It also holds the record for most appearances in championship games, with 19 general appearances. Its total championship count is exceeded only by the Green Bay Packers (13) and Chicago Bears (9).

To differentiate itself from the professional baseball team of the same name, the football team was incorporated as "New York National League Football Company, Inc." in 1929 and changed to "New York Football Giants, Inc." in 1937. While the baseball team moved to San Francisco after the 1957 season, the football team continued to use "New York Football Giants, Inc." as its legal corporate name, and is often referred to by fans and sportsmen as the "New York Football Giants". In addition, the entire team is occasionally referred to as the "Big Blue Wrecking Crew," although this nickname refers primarily to the Giants' defensive unit during the 1980s and early 1990s.

The team's rivalry with the Philadelphia Eagles is the oldest of the NFC East rivalries, dating back to 1933, and has been considered the best NFL rivalry in the 21st century.
