Daniel Jones already following Eli Manning’s playbook

One of the hallmarks of Eli Manning’s existence with the Giants is his unfailing refusal to point the finger at his teammates. A receiver runs a wrong route, Eli explains it another way. There is a dropped pass, Eli says he could have put the ball in a better spot. He took ownership of interceptions even when he was not the one to mess up.

It is a trait that allows players to follow their quarterback without hesitation, knowing he not only has their back but will cover for their mistakes and keep the corrections in-house.

The Giants are getting to know about Daniel Jones, their first-round draft pick, taken No.
