The New York Giants’ primary signal caller, Daniel Jones, ranked 23rd overall on Chris Simms’ annual Top 40 QB List. Last year on the NBC Sports platform, Simms ranked Jones 11th overall. Jones’ injury-plagued 2023 season dropped him 12 spots on Simms’ list. Jones ranked just ahead of DeShaun Watson of the Cleveland Browns.
Here are Simms’ rankings of Jones heading into each of the previous four seasons:
2020: 22nd
2021: 26th
2022: 21st
2023: 11th
2024: 23rd
When providing an explanation on Jones at 23rd, Simms stated that Jones was the hardest guy to peg on the entire list.
