DANIEL JONESQB,
NEW YORK GIANTS
Giants announced rookie Daniel Jones as the team's Week 3 starter.
And the crowd roars. It was an obvious transition once coach Pat Shurmur left the door open for a potential change on Monday, but the good news is the organization didn't hold back any longer despite being on the books for Eli Manning's $23.5 million in 2019. Danny Dimes most recently went 29-of-34 (85.3%) for 416 yards and two scores on just 60 snaps during the preseason. He'll likely battle uphill in his first start without Sterling Shepard (concussion) and Golden Tate (suspension), but it's the correct call to insert the No. 6 overall pick immediately. It's not farfetched to think Week 2 was the last start of
Eli's career, finishing with a 116-116 regular season record over 16 seasons.
116-116 regular season is about as average as you can get
