The New York Giants’ playoff drought is over. Big Blue are returning to the playoffs after defeating the Indianapolis Colts, 38-10, on Sunday.  The Giants (9-6-1) needed only a win over the Colts to secure the sixth seed in the NFC playoffs, where they are likely to play either the San Francisco 49ers or Minnesota Vikings in the wild-card round. NY are now bound for the postseason for the first time since 2016 and just the second time since the 2011 season when they won Super Bowl XLVI.

Brian Daboll became the first Giants rookie head coach to earn a postseason bid since Ben McAdoo in the aforementioned 2016 campaign; and quarterback Daniel Jones became the first starting QB since Eli Manning to deliver Big Blue to the postseason.
