Giants–Jets rivalry
The Giants–Jets rivalry is an American football rivalry in the National Football League (NFL) between the New York Giants and New York Jets. It is an intra-city, interconference matchup between the two NFL teams based in the New York metropolitan area. Since 1984, both clubs have shared a home stadium. Thus, a Giants–Jets game can be referred to as "the shortest road trip in the league". It can also be referred to as a "sibling rivalry" since both teams play at and share the stadium.

As the teams play in different conferences, the two teams only meet during the regular season once every four years and once every eight seasons at each team's home stadium when the entire AFC East and NFC East are paired up against each other. However, beginning with the 2021 NFL season, an extra inter-conference game was created based on division rank and rotation cycle two years prior, In addition to annual preseason matchups, the only other way the two teams would meet would be in the Super Bowl, which has never occurred.
