The New York Giants finally bit the bullet and benched quarterback Daniel Jones. Big Blue, at 2-8, are essentially punting on the season and will start backup Tommy DeVito.
It’s been a clunker of a season for Jones, whom the Giants selected out of Duke with the No. 6 pick in 2019. He has eight touchdown passes, but also seven interceptions and just 2,070 yards. In New York’s most recent game, against the lowly Carolina Panthers in Munich, Jones completed 22 of 37 passes for 190 yards, two INTs and had a rushing touchdown in a 20-17 overtime loss.
