Regular season

On November 25, 2015, the NFL announced that the Los Angeles Rams (known then as the "St. Louis Rams") will play host to a then-undetermined NFC East opponent in the International Series, in the first-ever game at Twickenham Stadium in London, England. On January 3, 2016, the Giants were confirmed as the Rams' opponent for this game, based on each teams' respective third-place divisional finishes at the end of the 2015 season. The game will occur during Week 7 on Sunday, October 23, and will be aired by the NFL Network in the United States. The kickoff time was announced on April 14, with both teams having their bye the following week.^[5]

The remainder of the Giants' 2016 schedule, with exact dates and times, was finalized and announced on April 14.
