There was a “Why now?’’ vibe as Pat Shurmur announced one week ago he was starting Daniel Jones and benching Eli Manning.
A day after Jones thrilled the Giants and their fans while making a statement heard around the NFL, another question was set on the table for the head coach:

“I feel like I did what I thought was best and, at least in this scenario, it played out well for Daniel,’’ Shurmur said Monday.
