The NFL’s Fiercest Rivalry

This season of HBO’s Hard Knocks will give fans an inside look at one of the NFL’s most infamous divisions. In 2025, HBO’s “Hard Knocks: In Season” will follow the Dallas Cowboys, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants, and Washington Commanders.

This marks the fourth time the Cowboys have been featured on Hard Knocks, but the first time the entire division will share the spotlight.

A New Era for Hard Knocks

This year, the show expands its format. Instead of focusing on just one team, the cameras will capture every dramatic moment across all four NFC East franchises.

The Eagles are defending Super Bowl champions. The Cowboys are eager to bounce back after missing the playoffs. The Commanders have a new star quarterback in Jayden Daniels. The Giants, led by coach Brian Daboll, look to rebuild with veterans and rookies alike.

Why the NFC East?

The Cowboys have the largest fan base in sports.

The Eagles are the defending Super Bowl champions.

The Giants have the thickest quarterback room in the league.

The Commanders are glowing for a change with birth of a new superstar quarterback in Jayden Daniels.

By featuring all four teams, Hard Knocks will showcase the intensity of division matchups and the high stakes as the season progresses. The in-season coverage begins in December, just as playoff races heat up.
