History

Historical Context

Founded with a $500 investment in 1925, the Giants have long used off-site venues—playing 1973 home games at the Yale Bowl during Yankee Stadium renovations and moving to Giants Stadium in 1976. In 2026, head coach John Harbaugh revived that tradition by shifting preseason camp from Hofstra to the Greenbrier in West Virginia, underscoring the franchise’s historic reliance on external training sites.
