Joe Schoen: My role hasn't changed, I'm still leading football operations
Key Points:
- The New York Giants have shifted their organizational structure by having head coach John Harbaugh report directly to ownership instead of the General Manager.
- Dawn Aponte, the new senior vice president of football operations and strategy, reports to Harbaugh and oversees strategic planning, analytics, salary cap management, and contract negotiations.
- These changes suggest a reduced traditional role for GM Joe Schoen, although he maintains that his responsibilities and leadership of the football operation remain unchanged.
- Despite Schoen's statements, the overall direction indicates that Harbaugh holds the most influential voice in the Giants' football decisions.
