After weeks of anticipation, the NFL released its 2024 schedule on Wednesday night where, and it was revealed that the New York Giants will kick off its 100th season in the NFL at home against the Minnesota Vikings.
The last time the Giants faced Minnesota was the 2022 NFL Wild Card Playoffs. New York came away with a 31-24 victory. Both teams will be looking to get back to their 2022 form after missing the playoffs last season.
