Daniel Jones’ days in a New York Giants uniform could be numbered after a terrible first season of a four-year mega contract.
Jones received a $160 million contract, with $92 million guaranteed, after having the best season of his career in 2022. But last season he was injured in Week 8 and missed the rest of the season.
Fresh off the NFL Scouting Combine, veteran sports reporter Rich Eisen was sharing rumors he heard at the event, one of them about the Giants’ caller.
“Number three of the top five rumors I heard at the combine is that the Giants are absolutely done with Daniel Jones,” Eisen said.
He said they “may have to play with it this year, but that’s not all…the words I heard at the combine several times, the two words were: buyer’s remorse.”
New York Giants are reportedly ‘absolutely done’ with quarterback Daniel Jones
Rich Eisen said that at the NFL combine, he kept hearing about the Giants’ “buyers’ remorse.”
Jones played only six games in the 2023 season due to poor performance and a torn ACL.
Since being selected by the Giants in 2019 with the sixth overall pick, Jones has only played one full season.
He backed up Eli Manning at the start of the 2019 season and missed games due to injury in both the 2020 and 2021 seasons.
In 2022, the Giants began the year by declining Jones’ fifth-year option, but he finished with the best season of his career.
Jones threw for 3,205 yards, 15 touchdowns and only five interceptions. He was also effective on the field: he rushed for 708 yards and seven touchdowns.
Giants general manager Joe Schoen signed him to that four-year, $160 million deal in the offseason and it immediately blew up in the team’s face.
He played terribly in the first five games of the season, finishing with a 1-4 record.
After an injury to Tyrod Taylor, he returned to the starting role against the Las Vegas Raiders. But in that game, he tore his ACL, marking the end of his season.
Jones’ 2023 ended with 909 passing yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions on 108 completions.
