Giants’ Ballentine rewarded for picking on Daniel Jones

Corey Ballentine would like Daniel Jones to know that it’s nothing personal.

They are both rookies, just trying to find their way, so Ballentine hasn’t given Jones too much grief about the two interceptions he has against him early in training camp. But when Jones brought up the subject recently, Ballentine had to oblige.

“Corey, you got me,” Jones told Ballentine as they were walking to lunch.

“I had to do it. I couldn’t let you — I didn’t have any other choice,” Ballentine replied, bursting out laughing Monday as he retold the story.
