Kurt Warner still isn’t completely sold on Daniel Jones, but he does think the rookie's standout preseason has made the Giants’ quarterback situation “more complicated.”
The Hall of Famer and NFL Network analyst – and former Giant who was replaced by rookie Eli Manning as the starter in 2004 – said that Jones’ performance this summer will only shorten the patience the team has with Manning.
“I think there is a grace period that you have to have with Eli Manning because of what he’s done,” Warner told Newsday at the NFL Network event to kick off the league’s 100th season on Tuesday.
