The Giants open the 2021 NFL season on Sunday against the Denver Broncos at MetLife Stadium in a 4:25 p.m. kickoff
The NY Giants, led by quarterback Daniel Jones, running back Saquon Barkley, and cornerback James Bradberry host the Denver Broncos, led by wide receivers Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton, and defensive end Bradley Chubb in Week 1 of the NFL season on Sunday, Sept. 12, 2021 (9/12/2021) at MetLife Stadium, in a 4:25 p.m. kickoff on FOX.

For all of the firepower on both offenses (Barkley, Shepard, Golladay, Slayton, Jeudy, Sutton, K.J. Hamler, etc.), these figure to be two of the league’s stingier defenses, which could put the under in play.
