New York Giants coach Pat Shurmur continued on Friday to stick to the “nothing has changed” at quarterback script he authored on Thursday night following Daniel Jones’ stellar preseason debut.
During his Friday conference call, Shurmur was baited with the “could there be an open competition at quarterback for Week 1 if Jones continues to play well?” question. He swam away from the bait.
“Listen, we’re not going to play the ‘what ifs,’ and I would say this: nothing has changed,” Shurmur said. “This is the first game and I expect Daniel to play well, I expect him to go out and improve, and for the people that don’t know him, impress them.
