After their disastrous appearance on "Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants" last year, Big Blue will have a chance to redeem themselves in 2025.
For the second consecutive year, the Giants will be featured on a Hard Knocks product. This time, by way of "Hard Knocks: In Season with the NFC East."

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) May 21, 2025Although the Giants' previous appearance on Hard Knocks drew rave reviews for the unprecedented behind-the-scenes access, even earning a Sports Emmy nomination, it did not reflect well on general manager Joe Schoen of the team.
The series followed the Giants throughout free agency and the 2024 NFL draft, and featured their divorce from superstar running back Saquon Barkley and their failed pursuit to trade up for a top quarterback.
Asked about their Hard Knocks appearance in February, Schoen implied he would advise other general managers to avoid the docuseries.
Giants GM Joe Schoen was asked if any other teams have asked him about the Offseason Hard Knocks experience, since NFL still doesn’t have a team to do it this year: “No, I haven’t gotten any calls on that. I think I know what I would tell them.” #Giantspic.twitter.com/YBooMMshZk

The award-winning series featured the AFC North as part of their in-season version last year.
In 2025, the series will debut on a Tuesday in December on HBO and stream on Max. Subsequent episodes will air on Tuesdays through the end of the NFL regular season and continue into the NFL playoffs in January 2026 as the Giants, Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, and Washington Commanders fight for control of the division.
